Fine-tuning your station
If you want stations you create to play more songs you like, you need to fine-tune the stations. When
a song you love or hate is playing, just tap the little star on the left of the play/pause button, as
shown in Figure 7-3 . Three options slide up from the bottom of the screen.
If you love the song, tap Play More Like This or Add to iTunes Wish List (or both). The star turns
red, as shown in Figure 7-3 , when you choose Play More Like This. If you hate it, tap Never Play
This Song, and you'll never hear it again (at least, not on this station). When you're done, tap any-
where outside of the overlay to dismiss it.
You can't fine-tune songs played on featured stations; you can add them to your wish
list, but you can't select Play More Like This or Never Play This Song for them.
Figure 7-3: Tap the star and the fine-tuning options appear.
When you find any item in the iTunes Store and want to add it to your Wish List, click the arrow to
the right of the Buy button and choose Add to Wish List. To view or change your Wish List, click
the iTunes Store and then click the Lists button next to the Library button in the upper-right corner
of the iTunes window and then click the Wish List tab (or click My Wish List in the Quick Links
section).
Using the Info overlay
What you can do — and this works with songs on both featured and custom stations — is tap the
little i -in-a-circle near the top of the screen to display the song's Info overlay, as shown in Fig-
ure 7-4 . When you're done with the Info screen, tap anywhere outside of the overlay to dismiss it.
The Info overlay lets you start a new station from the artist or song that's playing, allow or disallow
explicit content on the station, and share the station with friends via the usual methods.
The Tune This Station slider shown in Figure 7-4 appears only for custom stations; you can't tune a
featured station. Adjust it to hear more hits, get more variety, or discover more new artists and
tracks. Clear as mud? You can also tap the song title (“Like a Rolling Stone” in Figure 7-4 ) to see all
