i consider the sounds coming in through my window right now a "frame for ... sound" (not really; i consider it a symphony) - and i don't need to expend earth's resources or annoy the shit out of local residents for it!
if i want a one-chord backdrop for an ambient piece it's of no benefit to me, and wouldn't be to anyone, to be essentially forever.
in fact, one chord gets pretty irritating after a few hours.
