It's not a feature I've used much, personally, but it wouldn't be there if someone didn't get use out of it, I suppose.
Are you thinking of making a player app with these features, or are you thinking of making a utility services that intercepts the buttons and enables these feature in any app?
If you're thinking of making a player app, you'll need to worry about a lot more than this one feature to make it at all competitive, but good luck. It's always nice to have options.
If you're thinking of making an enabling utility, I can see how that might be interesting. (Though I'm not sure how it could be possible....)

Hi, Thank you for your input here. I really appreciate your feedback as it helps me to determine whether I should pursue the idea.
Yes, I was considering making a utility which would enable such functions across all related apps, so it would be controlling Audible, Kindle, Smart Audio book player or pretty much anything else out there...
That being said, I have received a lot of feedback on the different forum and quiet a few people didn't find it very interesting...
I may consider pursuing another idea as this one would definitely come out rather costly.
Also, there is a proprietorship issue when it comes to controlling different apps and I may not be able to achieve that at all if developers would not reveal their source code to me...
Unless this is a ground breaking idea, which at the beginning I thought it was. Then it could be worth striving for, but now I start to think that it may not work out...
How do you feel? Does it sound compelling to you or more like a long shot in the wild? Thank you once again!
