That's awesome. I totally agree, nothing substitutes human curation

Ironically, very little of the conversation in this thread is discussing the actual link, which is a mailing list of human-reviewed releases.

Most of the comments appear to be about the best algorithmic recommendation engine. I've used them all and still think it doesn't compare to the experience of human-curated music. Even a 1 paragraph review of the record tells me more than a "You might also like [___]" message.
