Restaurant Tables Part 5

There was an interesting article in Self-Serve News Online on February 24, 2013 titled; "App gives restaurant-goers self-service song choices," by Cherryh Butler which stated in describing how it works; "Customers download the Roqbot app to vote for their favorite songs. The app then selects the most popular songs to play. The businesses keep control over the selections because they customize their music library at setup, meaning customers can only vote for songs authorized by the restaurants. Roqbot's library includes not only more than 7 million songs, but also genre-specific catalogs and pre-built playlists, and business owners may also build their own playlists using the online tools."

Hey, now that's pretty cool, but screw that noise (music) I have a better idea, because I don't care how many people voted for Obama, "liked" Paris Hilton's dog on Facebook, or voted for Rap music that day. You see, what I want is directional sound which is pumped to just my table, thus, helping to limit the side noise from the restaurant and I only have to listen to MY music and have it MY way! Interestingly enough, all of this technology already exists, it wouldn't cost very much for a restaurant to put it in. Further, it's quite easy to control the sound within a booth at a restaurant, and maybe your app could download your music list and you could adjust the volume too?
