I find that theres usually a frontloaded benefit to most recommendation engines. I remember signing up for Netflix and the first 4 things it recommended were bang on. What it had trouble with was finding new interesting things for me on an ongoing basis once those low hanging fruit had been accessed. Spotify was the same. Once I had explored the initial new artists it showed me, further recommendations were worthless.
