How great. Can't wait for "Music for tech-savvy young adults with interest in retro games" or "Music for Asian women aged 35-45".

Before these industry-disrupting services emerge though, I guess I'll just stick to music that I like.

Critical comments are fantastic when they add insight to the conversation, but all you seem to be adding is cynicism.
I appreciate that someone else made this comment. I've always just listened to music I want to listen to. Any attempt to use "focus" music or whatever is just annoying. I know people don't like the cynicism but honestly this stuff is pseudo-science at best.
