Who said anything about turning on the telly?  I'm talking about choosing
from vast numbers of MP3s - ie music not movies.
There are rooms in the house (e.g bathroom, master bedroom) where control
of
music is required but a TV is undesirable.

Turning on a lightswitch isn't that much of a chore either, but there are
people willing to spend quite large sums of money to do it.
