how do you stop a playing song

when playing a song or video how do you stop the song other than just pause.at times i would like to stop whats playing and go to another activity other than just pausing and waiting for fuse to shut down or cutting off with on/off switch while song or video is still playing.

There is no stop button.  You can hit the Home button anytime and go back to the main menu to select a new action.

Actually if you pause/stop you don’t have to wait.   Pause/stop then you can do whatever you need.  I pause/stop it to move to another song, pause to answer the phone, pause to go to Podcasts or whatever.  If you are listening to poscasts or audiobooks, if you pause, go to somewhere else (like songs or shut it off) then come back it gives you the option of resuming playback where you left off or starting over.

One more thing, you don’t even have to stop a song (or radio) to scroll through the options or just look through your Fuze, I just did to check the settings.  Once you choose something the song will stop playing and go to that option.  The song that is playing will scroll across the bottom of the screen.
