Fair points - Stop does mean something different than "Pause". However, 
this is something Apple did with iTunes that I think is a smart move. 
They have eliminated the concept of "stop" replacing it with only the 
Pause/Play concept.

Yes, this is a bit limiting, but it eliminates an entire top-level 
button and a whole navigation concept that we can get by without. 
Simpler, no?
