Hi Mark, After you have added a few songs to your love list, you can ask Siri to play your personal radio station, and she will begin to play music on and around your love list. I call it a love list, but it is probably more like a “Like” list. It is a little different from Amazon you are right, and I haven’t tried to create smart play lists on my devices, because I just use the personal radio station thing.
