For me, Discover Weekly is awesome, but misses about 50-90% of the time. It feels like every other playlist sucks, but could be just me (or the algorithm...). Thankfully, there's a skip button so I can find new artists/bands that I really do enjoy from the playlist (and I have found about a dozen new ones that I really love now).

Years ago when I used Pandora, their radio was amazing and really kept up with the seed well, I felt. I'm not sure how it holds up now since I rather listen to music I choose instead of the radio, though. I feel like they did a better job in terms of hit/misses.

So, while I really like the opportunity Discover Weekly opens up, it's far, far from perfect, but definitely better than nothing.
