Fair point, but don't you think that it can be very efficient for simple tasks because these require you to find your input device and then use your hands for a simple tap where voice would afford the same result while mobilizing much less "resources" ? I feel the efficency of voice as a UI does not vary linearly against complexity of the tasks. It is very situational, though. If I know what I want to listen to, VR is great. If I don't know exactly, vision + touch helps to embrace a larger amount of information / make choice much for efficiently, no ? LMS 7.7.2 - 5 radio, 3 Boom, 4 Duet, 1 Touch, 1 SB2.
