iTunes: "Loading Playlist window" from internetradio streams should be in the status area

Submitted by Flauchhaus on November 29, 2008 to Annoyance, Usability

When opening internet radio streams a window pops up saying that it loads the playlist of the internet stream. That window is on top of iTunes and preventing any interaction to iTunes unless it gets closed or the playlist is completely downloaded. When the streamserver or the local network is slow, and the user wants to change the volume or switch to another track/channel, this gets very annoying.

Integrate the "loading playlist" window into the status display of iTunes so it doesn't block interacting with iTunes.

Changed title from [iTunes: "Loading Playlist window" from internetradio stream should be in the status area] to [iTunes: "Loading Playlist window" from internetradio streams should be in the status area].

Just like the 'downloading iPod Update' and 'Installing iPhone Update' dialogs...
