Hi telebone_man, thanks a lot for your feedback! I'm learning a lot from users like you, which is awesome!!!

The main difference in my service is that we don't do any manual curation using "agents," since the public editorial playlists can actually be quite generic, and not as personalized as creating a mix just for you, based on your tastes.

So, we've basically built an AI tech that can accurately understand music like humans.

Using this, our service can better serve you the right music for your moment, since it can understand your tastes much better (by understanding the music you like/listen to) & serve you the type of music you want, on-demand.

For example, you can tell the app to play some "relaxing music," and we'll instantly serve with you with music that's relaxing (which we didn't have to manually curate for you; it''s done on the fly by our A.I.).

As a result, you're not limited to any editorial selections, and the music you get once won't be the same as what someone else gets, etc.

Also, as another example, if you don't like to listen to aggressive, explit-type tracks, we can automatically learn that & improve the recommendations you get instantly, since our music-understanding AI can pickup the fact that you're not really into explicit-type tracks.

I've explained a bit more on how my service is a little different than Spotify in the comment I've posted above.

I would love to hear your thoughts on this!

Once again, thanks a lot!
