# Adding Items to the Bottom of the Playlist Queue

By default, FreeAmp automatically replaces the Currently Listening To playlist and begins playback immediately when you add an item (files, streams, tracks, and playlists) to the Currently Listening To playlist by:

- Using the Files button on the FreeAmp main window to add items.
- Double-clicking a track or playlist in the My Music Collection window.
- Double-clicking a file in Windows Explorer, or clicking on a SHOUTcast/icecast stream in a Web browser.
- Selecting a file in Windows Explorer, then using the File menu, Open option.
- Dragging and Dropping files onto the Player's main window.
- Invoking FreeAmp from the command line and specifying an MP3 file on the command line.

FreeAmp will automatically add tracks to the bottom of the Currently Listening To playlist queue if you:

- Drag and Drop files onto the My Music Collection window.
- Add Files using the Add Files toolbar button in the My Music Collection window.
- Add Files using the Edit menu, Add File From Disk option in the My Music Collection window.

If you prefer to always add items to the bottom of the Currently Listening To playlist queue, enable the "Default action is to queue tracks; do not play them immediately" option in the General Preferences window. When this option is selected, FreeAmp always adds to the bottom of the Currently Listening To playlist queue, regardless of the method you use to add the files.

1. From the FreeAmp Main Window, click the Options button.
2. From the FreeAmp Preferences dialog, click the General tab.
3. From the Miscellaneous field, make sure the "Default action is to queue tracks; do not play them immediately" option is selected.
4. Click the OK button.
