I don't agree. I think there's still room for "purpose specific" social media, and in the case of music that would be being able to follow people and plug into their feeds of what they are listening to and what playlists, sets or charts they put up with what tags, and let them stream. Spotify has something like this but the UI is only usable on the desktop client. You can do something like this on Youtube or Twitch and a lot of artists do. There's also sets on Soundcloud. Kinda like what Beatport does but with a more social and better website, and without the gatekeeping and heavy editorializing. I think Last.fm was on the right track with social features but didn't get the streaming right (I think mostly because of IP issues). What some projects like everynoise.com do with Spotify tags for genres is pretty amazing but of course it's missing the social features.
