Maybe it depends on your listening habits, but for me, Spotify and Netflix are very different experiences.
Spotify has almost anything I look for. Netflix I struggle to find anything of interest.
- kmacdough 2y agoSure, spotify has maintained a near-complete catalogue where Netflix hasnt. But I no longer find Spotify any good at finding new music, beyond manually looking through artist catalogues. For context, try out Pandora's recommendations. They haven't improved, yet they're orders of magnitude better than Spotify. The songs are hand annotated for style, content, etc. As a result, they recommend truly new songs with regularity that truly match the vibe. Compare with Spotify, where everything is based on statistical "people also listened to X". Everything converges on some pop form of whatever genre and songs you've listened to a lot. It'll play odd, out-of context songs from the same artist before it'll find you new artists. Sure they have a few manicured playlists, but its nothing compared to the value Pandora has provided for years.
- Taek 2y agoSpotify only has about half of the music that I like. A lot of it is remixes and jams from Japan that can only be found on youtube, soundcloud, or in some cases it's actually only available on private trackers.
