>It has a radio mode, which while not praticularly smart, does let you do some discovery. Oh right. That's not available in the free version or listed in the quick version comparison (though it is listed in the full comparison) which is why I'd not heard of it. >Smart recommendations, however, are not the experience they're looking for. Spotify seem to be aiming for actual human recommendations. They're focusing much more on the social stuff, both in marketing and engineering hours, than they are on trying to tell you what music to listen to. If I want that stuff, I don't get it using a computer; I talk to people. I'm coming to the conclusion that here - as with damn near everything - I'm "Not The Target Market(TM)" :'(. However it does seem that their target market is vast, so good luck to them. |

The idea that Young(TM) people who post a lot of stuff on each others facebook profiles and the like don't talk to each other is a myth.
They post the link, then next time they see the person in real life they have a conversation about the link. Having both given the link their full attention independently. When you're talking to someone IRL there is unlikely to be a suitable computer to hand, especially if the link points to some music.
