I think this is really exciting actually. I LOVE SiriusXM because their radio is curated by an actual DJ. You get to hear so many tracks that algorithmic services like Spotify never would surface. I use both Spotify and SiriusXM as for me they fulfill very different use cases. Spotify is for playing what I want to hear and Sirius is for when I want a human with deep expertise in a genre to play things for me.

For me, an algorithmic feed of music just isn’t interesting. Music is art, and art is for humans, not computers.

Honestly, I discover far more music through services like Spotify and Pandora than I ever have through the SiriusXM stations that I listen to.

I totally agree with this. Algorithms still have a ways to go to keep up with a human DJ. As far a human DJ who has the ability to pick the songs he wants and not just a formulated top 40 playlist chosen for him.
