I am a little bit too invested in music listening and Spotify pretty much killed my appetite for looking out for new music in their UI. So it became a Drive for my MP3s. Whatever Spotify is doing is not coming close to my experience with Pandora while it was open internationally, it was seriously ridiculously good. LastFM was also nice though not as good but definitely much better than Spotify. The issue is probably with record companies pushing songs that are not necessarily nice but promoted and squeezed in any chain that involves some relevant songs. These days, I'm busy with downvoting the same songs hoping that the machine would finally get it that I don't like it. You would be surprised how many times can Steven Wilson can appear in my playlists. Porcupine Tree was nice, I liked it...fine but I don't want his other projects. Spotify disagrees so everyday I have to skip 20 songs from him. Everyday! You can try it yourself, try any progressive playlist and you will be bombarded. Even Shazam was offering better stuff in their tiny box when I use their app before apple intervened.
