Although On Demand requires a monthly subscription fee, the Auto DJ feature is a powerful way to explore the thousands of tracks available without having to do much work. In our tests using the abovementioned artists, Auto DJ created a playlist in seconds featuring a mix of library and On Demand tracks, including those by Muddy Waters, Jimi Hendrix, and the Roots.
In other words, you can drag and drop artists such as OutKast and Van Morrison into the Auto DJ window, set the number of songs (or a number based on file size, minutes, or hours), set the diversity ratio of like artists, set the source somewhere between the vast On Demand library or your local library, and finally designate the popularity of the music.
While the Auto DJ Classic feature is still available for those who like to create mixes on the granular level, the new Auto DJ feature is able to create playlists of any size based on any number of "seed" artists. The new interface will also allow you to rename track information from directly within the library view if you're using the Plus version, you can batch-change the ID3 tag info for multiple tracks with a couple of mouse clicks. Here, you can drag and drop tracks from your library into any playlist-including On Demand tracks if you are a subscriber-and manage your existing playlists with ease. Another new addition is the Playlist Manager, which appears on the right-hand side of the interface. You can also customize a view using more than 30 ID3 tag criteria for example, you can create a view that shows the most recent 320kbps WMA tracks burned-the possibilities are endless. The music library can be viewed by album, album art, rating, On Demand tracks, or several other preset views, which are populated in a handy drop-down menu. Those familiar with version 9.0 will immediately recognize the new interface, which is dark blue by default (seven other color-based skins can be downloaded).
