I love the voice-controlled system in my car, where I can say "play album Abbey Road" or "play playlist Jazz Recliner" and it just plays. While driving at 70mph, that's much better than having to manually and visually scroll through menus to find what I want; I keep my eyes on the road and my hands upon the wheel, and key the system to listen for a command with a flick of a thumb on a button right there. Handy, convenient.
But for a home system, I can't see it being either needed or as convenient. Keying the system to listen, when you could be anywhere, walking around, moving from room to room, or even just sitting in your standard listening chair but with music already playing? Nah. Not so convenient. It's an entirely different environment with different requirements: I find that a phone/tablet/Controller/whatever is just fine for home system use. No shouting, portable, easy, and full-featured. I can't see a voice controlled system being any improvement at home. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dogberry2's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=18883 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=105674 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
