That's fine. It doesn't change my opinion, nor my sentiment. If Spotify's recommendation engine wasn't as good as it was, it would not have the users it has, and would probably have been eaten up by now. Nothing anyone has said has shaken that belief, nor offered up anything worthwhile.

A streaming service can have users regardless of how good its recommendation engine is. YouTube has crappy recommendation (and has had worse for most of the time it existed) but tons of users. For Pandora and Spotify, merely offering a convenient way to stream music, a free tier, and a big catalog, was enough. You seem convinced of some bizarro idea that a media/streaming service can only succeed based on its recommendation engine. Where did you get that from?
