I hear you — but what do you think Spotify or any of the other streaming services are? In my mind, algorithmic streaming services have much more in common with this "experiment" than your local radio DJ.
Spotify has a team of human editors who curate playlists. It's not all algorithmic. Those are exactly the jobs that something like this is directly threatening.
No, I mean a team of people who pick the songs that go into some of Spotify's playlists. They do have algorithmic playlists, but they also have an editorial team. You can read an interview done last year with their editorial head. [0]
