When initially working on the concept of the website I hadn't thought about adding a members area. After careful consideration I believe having the user create an account might be a useful aspect to the site.
When the user is making a playlist for their mixtape, a lot of time and consideration will be taken into which songs they choose so the flow of the website cannot be one which is rushed.
By having a members area it allows the user to save the playlist and return at a later date to finish it. Also the flow of the mixtape creation will be more structured.
Other benefits of having users set up an account on the website is for further marketing of the website. When users create an account their email address if stored for email marketing.
Here is a good send and load tutorial which might be helpful :)
