NEW YORK (MYFOXNY) - What do you buy for someone who has everything? How about a gift that keeps on giving after they die.
A $30,000 coffin comes equipped with speakers and a a Spotify music streaming account.
A Swedish company is selling the pricey resting spot with two-way speakers.
It allows the living to hear what's playing for the departed. A digital display on the headstone will allow visitors to see what's playing.
The owner of the first manufactured model of the CataCombo Sound System (http://catacombosoundsystem.com/) is Fredrik Hjelmquist. He allows strangers to add tracks to his playlist “Pause 4-ever”.

I guess with tubes, I'd roast like a chicken. I could put some seasoning in my pockets. :)

Seriously, isn't that really a waste of money.

I'd rather give the cash to charity or my children.

Besides, when your dead, you just rot in the ground.

Your body rots in the ground. Your soul listens to Spotify!

Husband: "I wouldn't be caught dead with a Bose system."

Wife: "Wanna bet?"

Note: This is not an attempt at a Bose bashing thread. For some people, they are perfect for their wants and needs. I know several people who have Bose and love 'em. More power to them.
