Thanks for the Sonos and MusicCast tip. However they do already have 10 treatment rooms with Sonos speakers that the employees operate for clients. They don’t even want something with that complexity. For the new spa room they literally want a touchscreen with the fewest buttons possible and no way for the client to mess up settings etc... this may have to be an in wall touch screen if not iPad. It’s in a usually busy resort with adults of all ages. So far Im thinking stick to Sonos and Simple RTiPanel interface to access favourite playlists and control volume. Ill have to ask my customer if skipping through playlist songs is enough or if the want the ability to search. In this case I may consider MusicCast if the driver allows for that

Why do they need to give control of the music to the clients?

I've never seen a spa or massage place offer this. Maybe it's best to let them know that it's a bad idea.

This is a unique world class spa and I'm not sure why they have this crazy idea. Doesn't sound like there are any solutions from residential market. Maybe I'll tell them to find some sort of custom commercial company. Who in Canada could design something like this? I'm thinking of those touchscreen TVs on the airplane seats. Totally custom and no way to mess up. Maybe one of you knows someone who specializes in that.

Of course there are solutions. If they have Sonos in other areas, but want it to be even easier, then you need to put an RTI (what you asked about in the first place) in wall touch screen in and create an interface that gives them what they want.
Don't use an Ipad, no reason to give them something that someone could potentially get off the app and require help. Using RTI screen means no way to mess it up, totally custom as you mention above.
Find out what they like and don't like about the Sonos app, and confirm all the possible uses for this room and then use Yamaha or Sonos which ever you feel will work for them. You can even create a nice welcome screen that has the Spa's logo or image which they will like. Might even lead to doing this for the rest of the rooms.
