Only if you want your service provider to do the discovery for you.
I have AM and I don't need or want their discovery as I am quite proficient at doing my own discovery. This means that 3 of 5 icons on the bottom row of their ios interface are a total waste of incredibly valuable UI space for me.
- msla 4y agoI'm fine with "service providers" essentially similar to FM radio stations (in addition to actual radio stations, FM or otherwise) doing some discovery for me because the good people at Soma FM and WFMU and KFGM and KBGA know more about their music than I do, and their brains aren't driven by an algorithm aiming at getting me more like what I've already heard. This doesn't have to be human-curated, even, as long as the algorithm behind the selection is not tailored to me.
