Yes, but it's a completely different market from folks desiring a space elevator.

Also, it makes the need for muzak nonexistant because all your passengers are dead and can't hear it anyway. Seems to me that defeats the purpose of trying to time the trip to coincide with the length of a particular song.

Also completely pointless - playing David Bowie to a space suit in a convertible that's fired into interplanetary space.

Nope.

It just wasn't really that good.
