I can't say I'm particularly impressed by that.  Sure, it has lots of
slick eye candy, but I don't feel much need for that.  The video seems
to heavily feature mouse/touchscreen control with either a keyboard or
onscreen keyboard for searching.

MythMusic searching could benefit from having an onscreen keyboard,
but frankly I'm not sure how to do that in a multi-lingual way.

Of course, the best input method for searching would be voice control.
 If only there were more time in the day...
