And not everybody's comp has the RAM to support both the game and an MP3 player, particularly if they're using bloatware like Windows Media Player.

Seems like everybody is plain HOSTILE to this idea in the threads I'm seeing. I really have to wonder why, it's just a nice feature they could add in to help people enjoy the game more. Yeah, you can play EQ2 windowed but that doesn't mean people like to, and it would make listening to custom music a lot easier.
Do you have a multimedia keyboard? Most of them have music controls on them.

Would you rather SOE work on the game or work on an MP3 player?

If you want to play full screen and don't have music controls on your keyboard you can use the global key commands in Winamp or something similar. It takes about 10 MB of memory.
