Why would I decide what I like to listen to when am algorithm can do it for me?
I fully jumped on the Spotify bandwagon hoping the algorithm would decide what i listen to, I'd become stuck in a rut and hadn't really listened to anything new for a good 15 years.
Well... After letting it figure my music tastes out, every single automatically generated playlist on there starts off with crap I just immediately skip before devolving into the same 5-10 songs I listened to pre-Spotify. So i guess it knows my taste well? But it has turned out to be useless for this too!
