<u>Davequestion??Do we need to mention other Preferences here??? I'd like to keep it simple and mention only those Preferences that are critical at this stage.</u>
 
IMPORTANT: Don't ignore the warning under #9. If you set up your options incorrectly, it is possible for you to scroll to any music store song and press play, and kJams will happily purchase the song for you without asking. And then without asking, it will purchase the next one that plays, and the next one. Setting your options this way CAN be very useful if you are a KJ and you want Singers to be able to search for and submit songs that are in your music stores (which you will gladly purchase for them). However, please make sure you know what you are doing.
