NOTE
The Music Genome Project is an attempt to understand music at its most fundamental level,
based on its core musical components—its “genome.” It’s the core of Pandora’s technology.
At the bottom of the screen is a set of buttons for controlling Pandora. The but-
tons are fairly self-explanatory. The thumbs-down button tells Pandora that you
don’t like the current song. When you tap it, the song stops playing—and
Pandora has learned something about your musical tastes. Based on that, it
stops playing songs with some of the characteristics of that particular song. The
thumbs-up button tells Pandora that you like the current song, and so it plays
more songs with its characteristics. The middle button lets you bookmark a
song or artist. You can’t use these bookmarks on your NOOK Tablet, though;
instead, you have to head to the Web and click Profile. From there, you can see
the artists or songs you’ve bookmarked, and use them in a variety of ways, such
as getting lyrics, seeing similar tracks, playing a sample of the song, and more.
The other two buttons are the usual controls
for pause/play and skip.
To switch to another Pandora station, tap the My Stations button at the bottom
of the screen. Tap any to play it. If you have a long list, scroll through it as you
would any other list. Tap Edit, and you can remove any station from the list.
