We describe the rationale for Multi-site Continuous Spectroscopy for the study of asteroseismology, stellar surface structures, instabilities and environments. We give some highlights of results obtained in the frame of previous world wide MUSICOS campaigns. We also describe specific results obtained with the recently commissioned ESA-MUSICOS spectrograph at the 2.5 m Isaac Newton Telescope at La Palma. Finally, we present ways for the stellar and interstellar community to use it, and to participate to future observing campaigns.
