Classification:Enhancement Reproducible:
 
Summary:
Beats1 has a wide variety of shows and presenters, with more shows being announced and added all the time. While a schedule is available to view in Music.app on iOS, or at beats1radio.com, it would be very useful to subscribe or favourite a show and receive a push notification shortly before the show begins.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Music.app
2. Navigate to the Radio tab
3. Click the Beats1 banner / station
4. Select a featured show, upcoming show, or a show from the “Complete Schedule” link, eg. St Vincent’s Mixtape Delivery Service

Expected Results:
Be given an option to favourite or subscribe to a show and receive push notifications when a show is about to begin.

Actual Results:
This option is not presented.

Notes:
This could perhaps be linked to the “Follow” feature. If I follow St Vincent’s Mixtape Delivery Service, it makes sense that I would want to be notified when a new show is about to broadcast.
