Claim 16:
17. A computer-program product, tangibly embodied in a machine-readable non-transitory storage medium, including instructions configured to cause a data processing apparatus to:
play a locally stored media item;
generate a plurality of different new streaming radio station creation user interface elements configured to provide streaming content, wherein the plurality of different new streaming radio station creation user interface elements are generated based at least in part on the locally stored media item, wherein a user interface element of the plurality of different new streaming radio station creation user interface elements is selectable, and wherein selection of the user interface element initiates creating a new streaming radio station;
present, on a display of the data processing apparatus, the plurality of different new streaming radio station creation user interface elements that were generated based at least in part on the locally stored media item;
receive a first input that identifies selection of one of the plurality of different new streaming radio station creation user interface elements to create the new streaming radio station based at least in part on the locally stored media item, the first input being received during the playing of the locally stored media item;
send a request, to a remote host computer, to create the streaming radio station based at least in part on the locally stored media item, the request being during the playing of the selection and the locally stored media item;
receive a link to the streaming radio station created by the remote host computer, the created streaming radio station configured to play streaming media content based at least in part on the locally stored media item; and
transition, via an animated transition, from the playing of the locally stored media item in a first region of the display to playing the streaming media content associated with the created streaming radio station in a second region of the display after the locally stored media item is finished playing.
