Hey there Philip! on that music product i was working on a few years back, i had a similar idea for text-to-speech in the system. the scenario that i had in mind was that if you are across the room and want to change up the music collection (with a different playlist for example), the device would tell you the playlist names as you were skipping through them. we had a cheapo remote of course (no lcd) but with the latest remotes with lcds built-in, seems like it wouldn’t be as necessary. i can definitely see this needed in the car too.
