iTunes “Genius” is a Hit

Friday, September 19th, 2008

I recently upgraded to the latest version of iTunes and noticed that they’ve implemented a new feature, Genius Playlists.  Now I can select a song in my library that I’m in the mood for and iTunes will suggest a whole playlist based on certain qualities of that song.  Granted, this is just like Pandora for iTunes, but I like it.  I can honestly say that I was pleased with 100% of the suggested songs…

    The great thing about this is the fact that it is now on the iPhone as well. That was always a pet peev on iPods in that you had to deal with the mixes you already made on iTunes, or work through the cumbrersome on-the-road mix option. This way, any mood i'm in, I can just create a similar playlist.

    One cool addition would be the ability to randomly add in iTunes songs that you do not have in your library. This could work similar to that of Pandora for iPhone, and would allow you to test run new music with the option to buy that track upon completion. Any way to both get new tunes out there/increase revenue
