Q: Cannot customize radio stations in iTunes in 12.2.1.6

I'm using my windows PC at the moment, which has just been updated to iTunes 12.2.1.6. I'm an iTunes Match subscriber, so I use custom radio stations frequently.

 

However, I can no longer edit the custom artists or songs in iTunes Radio for my custom stations. What the#$????

 

I have not updated my Macbook Pro yet to the new iTunes. I'll be sending feedback to Apple to restore custom radio.

 

Anyone else having this issue? I'm assuming it's global.

    Found the answer on another forum:

    Create a custom station from a song, album, or artist

    On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch:

    1. Tap the More Options icon  to the right of the song, album, or artist.
    2. Tap Start Station.

    Or just ask Siri to "Start a station from…” and then say the name of a song, album, or artist.


    On your Mac or PC:

    1. Select any song or album. RIGHT click the More Options icon  next to it.
    2. Click New Station from Song, New Station from Album, or New Station from Artist.

    Fine-tune your stations

    While you listen to Apple Music Radio, tell us what you want to hear more of. Tap or click the heart icon or the star icon when you hear a song you love.

    If you're a member of Apple Music, tap the heart icon to influence songs we suggest in the For You tab.

    When you listen to an on-demand station that you created and hear a song you like, you can tap the star to tell us if you want to hear more songs like it.

    I understand I can create from a song or album, which is exactly the same as Pandora.

     

    iTunes Radio previously allowed users to add more artists to a custom station without having to wait on a song to play to "like/heart" it. The service today (post apple music) is no different than Pandora, which is not what I signed up for with iTunes Match over a year ago.
