The ten-foot interface with a remote to navigate thousands of titles is rather unpleasant. For a better experience, we can talk to describe what we want, and the display system can learn individual preferences of each member in the household.

I assume that's part of what Steve Jobs intended when he said he had "cracked" a simple, integrated TV system -- per Isaacson's biography.

"[Jobs] wanted to do for television sets what he had done for computers, music players, and phones: make them simple and elegant."
