How do you add songs from the iTunes store to a playlist in iTunes 9?

With the old version of iTunes, (iTunes 8) you could click and drag any song from the iTunes store to a playlist, and you could then gift those songs, or publish them as an iMix. With the new iTunes, (iTunes 9) the capability of clicking and dragging songs from the store to a playlist seems to be gone. Does anyone know of a way to add songs from the iTunes store to a playlist in iTunes 9?


Thank you!|||At the bottom of the page you'll notice a "Wish List".


On the song you want to "save" go next to the price button and locate the arrow. Pull down the options. There will be a "save to Wish List". Select that, voila. When you open your "Wish List" that song will be there. I know it's a pain in the butt if you already have a huge play list of songs you're thinking of buying, but it's the only option I've found for now.|||You can still do it just the same as before, just switch to the old columnar view - on the View menu select Show Column Browser. When you view items in the column browser you can add them to playlists like you always used to.

|||This problem has been fixed in iTunes version 9.2 and later (including 10). More details here, we were working on this for a while:

In short: you can now drag store previews to a playlist again!
