@Desirsar They could always make people pay more for this feature.  I certainly would.  Honestly, paying to not have songs that are "pushed" is a lot like paying to not have ads.  ... View more

Recently realized this feature could easily be used for sharing stations. I wanted to copy a friends station, and while it would be neat to have that feature in its entirety, simply copy-pasting the station DNA would be (probably) a lot easier and more fun. You could modify things if you like.  Or even post the DNA online as text, so it could be easily shared anywhere, while not being a black-box link. Just some new musings for this riff. ... View more

Hey @TannerPandora, Could you ask one of your devs hows the genome for a specific station is calculated? Is it functional, as in the product of a complex join using your history?  Or is there perhaps more of a pre-calculated thing, each action creating simple modifications to a relatively simple set of joins that defines the musical genome of any given station? Seemingly, from a developer perspective, creating this feature would probably be significantly easier than doing the exact same thing using songs and artists as seeds...  Unless you're using a lot of ML... ...

If BPM is part of the music genome, being able to add/remove music genomes to the stations DNA would make this totally possible. https://community.pandora.com/t5/Feature-Requests/User-control-of-Stations-quot-genre-DNA-quot-add-remove-dna/idc-p/26378#M2576 ... View more

If topic and theme are considered part of the genome, you'd be able to have control over it with the ability to add/remove "Music DNA" genomes: https://community.pandora.com/t5/Feature-Requests/User-control-of-Stations-quot-genre-DNA-quot-add-remove-dna/idc-p/26369#M2570 ... View more

If you could edit the music genome of your station, and you could see the genome of the song, you'd be able to achieve the effect of a super like. https://community.pandora.com/t5/Feature-Requests/User-control-of-Stations-quot-genre-DNA-quot-add-remove-dna/idc-p/26406#M2591 ... View more

If "censored" is part of the music genome, you'd be able to do this by having control of the "Music DNA" of your station:   https://community.pandora.com/t5/Feature-Requests/User-control-of-Stations-quot-genre-DNA-quot-add-remove-dna/idc-p/26400#M2587 ... View more

If this was something that could be specified by music genome, then having control over the "Music DNA" of your station would allow you to specify you like "original" songs. I fully agree, remixes and covers are super obnoxious most of the time, but downvoting them has a negative effect on the station. https://community.pandora.com/t5/Feature-Requests/User-control-of-Stations-quot-genre-DNA-quot-add-remove-dna/idc-p/26398#M2585 ...

Being able to add mood or activity "Music DNA" to your station would make it really easy to hone in on specific feel: https://community.pandora.com/t5/Feature-Requests/User-control-of-Stations-quot-genre-DNA-quot-add-remove-dna/idc-p/26369#M2570 ... View more

If you could prioritize different music genomes over each-other, you'd be able to get the effect of super like and super dislike: https://community.pandora.com/t5/Feature-Requests/User-control-of-Stations-quot-genre-DNA-quot-add-remove-dna/idc-p/26369#M2570 ... View more

Being able to control the "Music DNA" of your station would solve this exact problem.  You could say "I really like this type of DNA": https://community.pandora.com/t5/Feature-Requests/User-control-of-Stations-quot-genre-DNA-quot-add-remove-dna/idc-p/26369#M2570 ... View more

What you're talking about seems exactly the same as being able to control the "Music DNA" of your station. I have a very similar feature request: https://community.pandora.com/t5/Feature-Requests/User-control-of-Stations-quot-genre-DNA-quot-add-remove-dna/idc-p/26389#M2580 ... View more

Searching for songs by "Music DNA" would be a lot easier if you could specify that DNA on your channels: https://community.pandora.com/t5/Feature-Requests/User-control-of-Stations-quot-genre-DNA-quot-add-remove-dna/idc-p/26381#M2577 ... View more

This would be really easy to do if we could add/remove music DNA from a station: https://community.pandora.com/t5/Feature-Requests/User-control-of-Stations-quot-genre-DNA-quot-add-remove-dna/idc-p/26378#M2576 ... View more

If word content is part of the "Music DNA," you might be able to specify what word content DNA you prefer: https://community.pandora.com/t5/Feature-Requests/User-control-of-Stations-quot-genre-DNA-quot-add-remove-dna/idc-p/26369#M2570 ... View more

Being able to increase the weight of a song could be done by prioritizing that type of "music DNA." I put in a feature request for being able to specify music DNA, and if there was a prioritization aspect, it would cover this use case: https://community.pandora.com/t5/Feature-Requests/User-control-of-Stations-quot-genre-DNA-quot-add-remove-dna/idc-p/26369#M2570 ...

> I would also like the ability to indicate why a song fits a station such as genre, style, theme, artist, tempo, etc. What you're talking about is having control over the music DNA of your channel.  I put in a feature request for this: https://community.pandora.com/t5/Feature-Requests/User-control-of-Stations-quot-genre-DNA-quot-add-remove-dna/idc-p/26362#M2568 ...

Having control of the "Music DNA" of your channel should be able to give some control of this.  I put in a similar feature that should cover this use case: https://community.pandora.com/t5/Feature-Requests/User-control-of-Stations-quot-genre-DNA-quot-add-remove-dna/idi-p/26348  ... View more
