Last.fm had the best categorizing features I ever saw. Songs would. It only be listed under “female artist” but would also have things like “extensive vamping,” that really got to the heart of what the song was about. They got closer to understanding why I liked songs than any other service. All of the other services feel rather dumb when it comes to preferences. It feels like they still rely on associating other people that liked artist x also liked artist y. As a music aficionado it’s infuriating. Apple has tried to help by using human curated playlists but I frequently find myself thinking I have better taste than their “experts.” |

It feels like all the time, when there is human curation factor, it ends up being sold off, gamed, exchanged for favors etc.
