I hadn't visited the site in a while, and within 60 seconds I found an irritating UI issue: When you're playing an "artist station" there's a slider thing from "artist only" to "adventurous" (which is awesome because the lack of this is the reason I never listen to Pandora).

However, when you change the slider, it advances the song (whether or not the current song is by the station's artist).

Reported that to rdio. No word back but ya, bug.

Maybe they pay different fees for artist vs Adventure (perhaps not a bug )

I highly suspect that is the case. On-demand (picking specific songs) has significantly higher royalties than radio. turntable.fm's model of picking a bunch of songs to be played but playing them with a batch of other user's requests was an interesting way around that.

In this case, however, I don't see the reason for skipping the currently playing song. I'm assuming that they've already had to pay for the current play so they might as well let it play out before skipping to the cheaper rotation.

Yeah, I've noticed that one as well, wasn't sure if it was intentional or a bug.
