Volvo XC90: Media player / Gracenote®

Gracenote identifies artists, albums, tracks and any associated images that can be displayed during playback.

Gracenote MusicID® is a standard for music recognition. It can identify and analyze the metadata of music files and present information about the music. Metadata from different sources may sometimes be inconsistent or insufficient.

Because Gracenote supports phonetic processing of artist name, album titles and genres, voice commands can be used to control music playback.
