Will VW's latest app drive parents to distraction?

The Media Control app essentially turns a smartphone into an in-car entertainment system remote control.

Volkswagen's Media Control app puts children in control of the car's infotainment system with the hopes that turning back-seat drivers into back-seat DJs will help parents cope with restless children on longer drives. 

For many parents undertaking a family road trip, having to put up with their children's choice of music can be as frustrating as the constant complaints about how long they've been in the car and inquiries on the progress made concerning arrival time -- "are we there yet?".
