The Artist browser is updated on a regular basis. However, sometimes it takes a while for a new album, song or artist to appear in the artist browser. The artist browser data is used for the recommendation function that assists you with selecting and submitting your music wishes. The wishlist also fulfills wishes for songs and artists that are not located in the artist browser.

Why are my wishes not being recorded?
Possible reasons if your wishes are not being recorded:
- The more popular a song is, the faster it will be recorded. For unpopular songs it might take hours or even days before they are played in any radio station, so that Oceans XStream can record them.
- Are your settings for music wishes too strict? Settings for music wishes
