Old Thin-Net Cables As Audio Cables

I have a pile, like 10 or 12, of the coax cables for thin-net,
you know, the crappy BNC network system that seems to get
wierd for no reason.  I have completely expunged my network
at home of these in preference for twisted pair cables.  So
now I have alot of cable.  What do you all think of using this
cable with 1/4 plugs as audio cable?  I know these cables are
solid conductor and won't take alot of bending, but for 
more or less permanent hookups, such as from rack mounted
sound modules into my mixer?  I would think they would give 
a fairly low resistance connection.  Heck, even as speaker 
cables.  Anyway, it's a shame that they just sit here.
