Research direction

Start by reading the Go code that handles track playback, station/channel selection, and genre navigation; the issue does not name specific files or tests. Determine how the player represents the current track and station, then check whether existing tests cover playback navigation. Done means a skip advances to the next track when available, otherwise to another station in the same genre.

Description

enhancement

Problem

Oh my - there are just some feeds I don't want to hear the rest of the song ... can we implement a skip function that advances to the next track on the current channel... or jumps to the next channel in the same genre??

Proposal

If a station does not have the next track available, allow the user to skip to the next station to avoid annoying songs.
