Q: How do I add a Radio station to my Library or Playlist.

In 12.3.2.35 WIN 8.1 on a HP Notebook. I can do it each time I listen to a particular station, but I can't figure out how to add it permanently in the Library or a Playlist. An iTunes Help page says I can, but it does not tell me how to do it.

    You should be able to drag an Internet Radio station to a regular playlist. I don't know about Apple Music radio stations.

    Sorry but this is my first adventure in Internet Radio. I can play this particular radio station from a Desktop link without the help of iTunes. But there are certain advantages to playing with iTunes. The station's Web page provides a URL that I can Copy then Paste into 'Open Stream' in iTunes. That works very well, but I have to do it each time I want to use iTunes to play this station. Dragging to a Playlist is not the issue. The question is - how do I get a radio station into the iTunes Stream list?

    If you open a stream using File > Open Stream... you should find that iTunes creates a new playlist called Internet Songs, if it doesn't already exist, and then puts a entry in it for your chosen stream so you can open it at will. Open Music > Playlists > Internet Songs and take a look.

    Actually after searching in my Playlists eventually I found it in the section 'Recently Added'. I created a new Playlist & dragged it into that. Works great.

    Thanks for your help.
