Wouldn't usr be more appropriate than src here?

No, it makes absolutely no difference in this situation. (Unless for some reason you feel the need to have a command that calls PlayMusic for another player.)

Personally, I try to use src in every possible situation where usr isn't required, since usr is really only for special situations, where src should be the general purpose way to refer to the object at hand.
