You create your own play list. It plays the music in a random order and interlaces it with short adverts every 4 (?) songs or so. Works for me generally.Only issues are:1/ Does not have some more "out there stuff" E.g. the Fernando Llorente concept album2/ Concept albums don't work see #1

i am looking to play music in my car which doesnt have access to streaming, so need to be downloaded

I like Spotify, but lacks of quality, I am expecting the new format from the company owned by Neil Young. I am kind of Audiophile

This let me down, I was expecting something new, they claimed a different format better than FLAC. Dissapointment !Does it mean FLAC can not be beaten ?
