Human curation is still the state of the art; computed curation is a miserable failure that utterly fails to capture my tastes. It's trivially easy to guess what iTunes or Netflix will recommend to me, which indicates to me that the decision taken is tautological.
The goal of a recommendation system should be to expose me to things I wouldn't be likely to find by myself.
