Q. Is there an actual prohibition about deriving any kind of enjoyment from Christmas lights?… What about benefiting from other Christmas things – like, is one allowed to enjoy the holiday music they play over loudspeakers in grocery stores?

A. See last answer, most of the points apply to music as well. However, some of the tunes played during the season on the radio or in commercial malls and stores may actually be the same religious melodies or songs performed in houses of worship and thus prohibited. (Igros Moshe Y. D. 2: 56 and 111, Avnei Yashfei 153: 5, Habais Hayehudi p.268)

Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit”a opinion is that if you don’t have any intent to enjoy or pay attention to them, you may continue with your activities.
