Huh, this is an interesting take to me. I'd say that my using Spotify has definitely increased the amount of "bad" music I listen to, but it has _drastically_ increased the amount of amazing, life-changing music I find. There are _so_ many artists I enjoy now because Spotify threw them in my Discover Weekly. By increasing the sheer amount of music I listen to, thanks to Spotify, I've increased the number of bands I love that I stumble upon, and bands I hate. It's a net win though, because I forget the shit stuff, but really, really cherish the gold I find.

I'm just surprised that you feel it's _harder_ to find good music because of Spotify.

There's more shit to wade through.

I really miss the days when Youtube's "related videos" were seemingly based on a graph data model -- populated like: other people that watched this, then clicked on that.

Honestly, it was far more accurate for new, niche music. My browser tabs would grow exponentially.

Now it's all sorts of weird shit like US news coverage of sentencing serial killers. Which I didn't ever watch before...
