On Air - Radio iTunes

Accounts Apple ID, geographically tied to the United States, not just give their owners a reason to enjoy a greater number of advantages than the owners of the local "apple" accounts. streaming music service "Radio iTunes» - one more reason to celebrate. Yes, what!

According to some American bloggers have "apple Radio" three major advantages:

• An extensive music library, which can not boast of longtime rivals.
• High sound quality: as you know, most of the music in the iTunes Store are stored in a compressed format, AAC Plus, which is significantly better than the traditional MP3 and AAC.
• Creating your own "stations" - a very simple and straightforward process.

On the last point I will focus in more detail. In section Radio (Radio)That is in your iTunes library and iOS-program "Music", which was originally available a constantly updated stream of stations created by members of iTunes Store. These stations can be saved to your list, but you can not edit them in any way - listen to as it is.

It is quite another thing when you create a station. First of all, you can do this in the section

Radio (Radio). At the touch of a button The new station (New Station)You will be presented with a list of different genres (good for general guidance for any music napavleniya). But we can go even further by specifying the search field of a particular artist, or even any of his a composition which would be a "starting point" in forming the dynamic playlist created station.

Here are just entering the work is already well-known mechanism of Genius, which selects similar tracks more accurate, the more detailed will be a list of your preferences. And this should often remember the button ★ - on iOS-devices and it is available in the application "Music", and on the lock screen, and in the Control Center. Clicking on it a menu appears with three teams:

• Similar play (Play More Like This) - just this team will make the current track in a list of your preferences for this station, which will allow "Genius" or rather choose music to suit your taste. By the way, this option is not available for the stations of the iTunes Store.
• Never play a song (Never Play This Song) - This makes the current composition of the "black list" of the station. This track is similar to him and will no longer be played. Like the previous command, this menu item ★ also available for "tuna" stations.
• Wishlist iTunes (Add to iTunes Wish List) - especially shoplifting team, the effect of which is clear from the title. Although if you want to just buy the current song, it is best to push the price button.

Lists preferences and "black lists" are easy to edit and manually by going to the edit mode of the list of stations. By selecting a specific station, look for lists Similar play (Play More Like This) and Do not ever play (Never Play This) - button Artist, song or genre (Add Artist, Song, or Genre) under the headings of these lists make it possible to introduce new positions in them. The names of the stations can also be changed, and if any of them you sick - remove it simple.

At the same time, when you edit the properties of a particular station, you can send a link to it to your friends via iMessage or electromail or publish it in the "Facebook" or "tweeted".

To create a new station, by the way, there is another

, Very simple way. Run any song you want - from your library or even within some already established stations - and in the context of this track menu, select one of the two teams: The new station on the artist (New Station from Artist) or The new station on the song (New Station from Song). Immediately after that, the list of your stations will be new, for which the same way you can edit all of the available properties.

By the way, in the same context menu you can further configure the station. slider Customize this station (Tune This Station) It allows you to set the "level of fame" of randomly selected tracks. A switch With non-normative text (Allow Explicit Tracks) permits playback compositions obscene language.

Here, perhaps, and everything that can be told about the basic functionality of "Radio iTunes». It should perhaps add that a few words about a nice and small (yet?) Advertising, and even more rare Giglio, which create a slight feeling of listening to a live radio (lacking only jokes DJ). Of course, if you subscribe to iTunes Match there is no advertising, but the stubby audio clips do not irritate. So do not even know whether the lack of advertising so much advantage. :)

The only objective minus "the iTunes Radio" is the lack of access to it for all those who do not have an "American" account. I'd like to have been resolved as quickly as possible all the questions, because of which the service is not received immediately worldwide distribution. Because this is really a bottomless well of great music, from which you can draw only what you like. :)
