listeners can Like/Love songs
Listeners via mobile or web can like the current track playing, broadcasters receive stats/metrics on what tracks are liked.
Listeners can like songs on the mobile app, but what does it do? How will the Station know that a listener liked a song they played?
If a listener likes a song, do we allow the like to be shared across different social media platforms?
Listeners should also have the ability to dislike/hate songs so the broadcasters can get that feedback as well.
This should also be an optional feature that can be toggled on/off.

Agreed. This was on the old platform and was helpful to gage the listeners tastes. -

Michael Lynch MergedIt would be nice to have folks vote on songs they like and a report for the broadcasters to see what works and what songs dont

Progressive Rock AZUSAI would like to see this feature as well. We had this on the old Live365.com platform.

USA Dance Mix MergedI'd like to see the algorithms keep track of how popular (# listeners) a track gets....................and use that weight to decide which track to play.

SakeBito MergedThis was always a good tool for making a simple determination of what listeners like. I like everything I play, but that may not be the case with random people around the world, so it would be a nice feature to see return - though not as essential as things like song upload dates, which are vital for maintaining playlist freshness.

INNERSPHEREyes back when i was on live365 from 2005 to 2007 you were able to rate songs. this better helped to weed out the ones people didn't like, which i think is good to know and makes room for another song. but it had a choice of 5 stars i believe. so you could know even better where it stood among listeners

SakeBito at Amanogawa ExpressAdd my vote - and though I kinda have to force myself to say it, it would be nice if listeners could do thumbs-down votes too, just so you have an idea of songs getting stale or which are just not liked much by listeners (the pre-'16 Live365 had this feature and it was really helpful in keeping the playlist fresh - though I like to think every song I play is just great, so thick skin is required. 8^)

JCAn important feature - how else are we supposed to know what songs the audience does or doesn't care about? As someone else said, a thumbs down would be helpful too.

Maggie G / UV - Ultimate Variety RadioThis is another feature that's been requested since Live365 came back. I don't understand why it hasn't happened, yet. Please make this happen.

Bernardo MorontaWould love this. It would be a great source of feedback/research for station operators and would add some much-needed listener interactivity to the platform.

RickI believe but not really sure, this should make the station a charting station then. You would be able to do a Top 40 chart, right?

Pranav CPlease implement this functionality. My in-car listeners are UNABLE to remember the names of songs they like (but had not heard before) on my radio broadcast.

OrlYes, this would be an ideal feature to have. Balancing the radio and having a full time job as well. it's not easy to screen every single song. so a like/dislike feature will give listeners a say so and we as broadcasters would have an idea what is liked and what just sounds awful.
