What happens to iTunes Radio in 8.4

[ajiuo]

I hope it's just because it's a beta... But iTunes Radio really sucks in the redesigned music app.

- You can no longer view all of your stations.
- You can no longer change settings for a station such as allow explicit tracks and hits, variety, discovery.
- The star only allows you to add a song to playlist... You can no longer say play more like this or not to play this song again.

iTunes 12.1.2.27 on my Mac does not even allow creating a station.

Well... you can view your stations under "recently played" it's just very inelegant. Also, tapping the star provides me with the same options as before, except the "never play this song again" has been replaced with a "Play less like this"

You can't view all of your stations.

Weird... I don't get that option at all...

Or seeing what songs/artists you've star'd in the past.

Are they moving customization to a paid service?

I'm starting to realise it is not a big deal iTunes radio was not launched internationally (except Australia) after all.

Shoot I'm happy just using internet radio - tunein radio and the like - even web versions of conventional radio fills my needs.

I rarely use this feature unless I have WiFi.

Maybe, Apple will migrate these things to the paid service? I don't know.
