| I’m basing this off of 7+ year old memories so please excuse errors / misinformation… - It had label support. For example, if you wanted to find all releases by Deutsche Grammophon, you could - It’s handling of classical music seemed much better than anything I can recall using - It’s recommendations seemed to be better…like they went above and beyond basic genre recommendations - For ‘radio stations’ you could dislike a song or artist and it only affected that station. So if you love Bowie but don’t want him on your funk station, you could dislike the artist but still have all the Bowie you wanted on other stations…same for songs - The social aspect seemed to bade recommendations on people who had similar taste as you…kind of like Dig that would mention but it was built in to the service Again, this is all based off of memory but I’m confident I discovered more artists and music on that single service vs the plethora of varied services I use today. As to Dig, I have tried it but it’s such a manual thing I haven’t kept up. I tend to listen to local jazz / classical radio nowadays for the majority of my time and periodically use various services for discovery. I’ll have to give it another go. Side note, similar to OP, I have found BandCamp (specifically their weekly show) to be also good for discovery. |
