Sadly I keep getting told that but have yet to find any music service that actually figures out what I like. My fiction is that you have to like one of 5 or 10 mainstream styles or you have to not be picky.

I put in Prince and Spotify gives me rap. Prince has nothing to do with wrap. I put in Pizzicato 5 and Spotify gives me J-POP. Pizzicato 5 has nothing to do with J-Pop. I put in a dance tune from a popular western pop band and Spotfiy gives me ballads from popular western pop bands when what I wanted was more dance tunes.

I've never had Spotify or Apple Music or Youtube Music work ever.

Even their own playlists don't work. I tried playing "Morning Pickup" and first 2 songs are super depressing.
