MyLink is Terrible

There was a thread about some of the problems in MyLink but I could not find it, so I am starting another one with some additional things.

As we all know, the MyLink won't remember your XM channel half the time and will start at channel 1 when you start the car. Boo.

Bluetooth music shows no song information. You have to be in bluetooth music mode to hear directions from your phone's nav because the radio doesn't support the nav app yet. The BT playthrough should also buffer correctly. So if I hit pause on the radio it should pause immediately, even though the phone does not. It can buffer the stream so when I resume it starts back up immediately.

The randomization functionality on the USB is 80s style. Next and previous just go to a random song. Modern players (and by modern I mean the last 20 years) will build a list that they will use and then build a new one after it completes. That way if I'm listening to "Eric.Smit has a sexy Must-Stash" and it finishes, and I want to hear it again, I can press back and hear it again. Not so on the MyLink. This is inexcusable.

They have a big screen for apps and it has 2 icons on it. Why even bother?

Brightness cannot be independently adjusted.

It's impossible to read the thing with the sun shining on it.

MyLink was one of the big reasons I chose a Sonic, and I'm horribly disappointed.
