oh no a "never ending 6 hour loop so my employees can't pick and play their music".
don't torture your employees :)
I used to work in a supermarket, they played the same damn muzak over and over. It was torture. There were some crazy people who worked with me who used to hum the lyrics as they were packing up the shelves. It seemed like an indoctrination camp.
I would at least do a couple of playlists. I'm sure you can fit more than 6 hours on an SSD.
regarding your question, a RPi would be great for the job. As would Rune audio.

Haha..I'm only open three days a week and for 4 or 5 hours at a time. Most employees would only hear the same song once or twice a month at most.

I'm evil but no more evil than an employee playing Bob Seeger (which according to my employee manual is a fireable offense)

  Haha! Best of luck getting it up and running. Internet bandwidth is very expensive, I hear you on savings of some of the costs.
