Default Playlists...

  • Latest Songs - Songs that was more recently added to the collection
  • Most Played - Songs that are most played by users on the site
  • Highest Rated - Songs that have received the highest ratings from use

• There will be two ways to access these playlists:
  • From the default playlists section on the lower right hand side of the player
  • from the "Default Playlists" block on the right hand side of the page
• Accessing "Default Playlists" from the player
  • All the default playlists will be showing only 20 songs (for a more configurable default playlist look at the second way to access them)
  • You can switch between the default playlists by using the left and right arrows on the playlist section on the lower right hand corner of the player
  • You can load the entire playlist as your current playlist by clicking on load while the playlist is displaying
  • You can append the entire playlist to the current playlist by clicking on append.  Remember that you can have only 30 songs on your playlist at a time so the append will add only as many songs as allowed by this constraint
