Gracenote CarStars music suggestions

Each guide has a set of music it prefers, and can recommend music for you. The system also uses a GPS chip to suggest music based on your location. In this demonstration, Gracenote had Mims suggest beach music. These recommendations are based on Gracenote's music-matching technology, which uses tags, such as genre and music tempo, to suggest similar music.
