Abstract: In some embodiments, an electronic device displays a user interface associated with a first record label. In some embodiments, the user interface includes one or more representations of artists associated with the first record label and one or more representations of content items, and does not include representations of content or artists not associated with the first record label. In some embodiments, in response to a selection of a representation of a first artist, the electronic device displays a user interface of the content playback application associated with the first artist, which includes one or more representations of content associated with the first artist, but not one or more representations of content associated with the second artist. In some embodiments, in response to a selection of a representation of a first content item, the electronic device initiates a process to access the first content item via the content playback application.

Abstract: In some implementations, a computing device can be configured to manage playlist-only media items for a user's media library. For example, when a user adds a media item to a playlist, the user can be presented with an option to add the media item to the playlist as a playlist-only media item. When the user selects to add the media item to the playlist as a playlist-only media item, the computing device can update media metadata associated with the user's media library with data indicating that the media item is a playlist-only media item. When the computing device performs operations (e.g., displaying, searching, etc.) on the user's media library, the computing device can exclude the playlist-only media items from the operations. The computing device can change the playlist-only settings for a media item to add and/or remove a media item from the user's media library.
