I've never used this site before, so I can't comment on how it used to work. This interface is not at all intuitive though.<p><pre><code> - click a play button on a song
- music starts playing
- click a different play button
- nothing happens
- click pause
- music stops
- click a different play button
- nothing happens
- click play
- first song continues playing
</code></pre>
Steps to get a second song to actually play after you've got a first one playing:<p><pre><code> - find the word Queue (non-underlined, not a button) in the lower right
- click it
- click "clear queue"
- hit the back button (for some reason, the page has navigated away)
- click the play button on a song
</code></pre>
I can understand how they want it to work, after plenty of frustration just trying to listen to some songs. But they've clearly been spending way too much time with it internally without showing it to real world users.<p>Expectation: clicking the play button on a song plays the song.<p>Suggestion: make all this "queueing" stuff be something you opt into, after deciding that you want it and learning how it's supposed to work. Or at the very least add a second play button per song that actually plays the song.<p>EDIT: I just found the link to see the old interface, and despite the above, this new interface is a million times better. The old interface was an empty box saying "what song do you want to hear?" I have no f'ng clue what song I want to hear. I'm on your site so that you can show me some cool new music that I might want to hear.<p>Every link on that old interface leads to an empty screen saying basically "go away, you uncultured, non-music-knowing-about person and don't come back until you've researched enough about music to add some songs to your collection." This new look comes across more like "check out all this music. It's all good, so come in and play around". Much better way to greet newcomers to your site.
