They're right, most people have shit music taste.
I have shit music taste, but only because I'm self aware enough to know I do.
You may be shrugging right now, going "well, I don't have shit music taste."
You do.
It's not shit, it's just easily hackable. If a real person recommends a song or band, I let most of my defenses down and try to find why it was recommended.
Consider those who just turn on artist radios, Spotify can't blacklist an artist they feature, to my knowledge.
Oh, there's an Ai group in your favorite artist's radio? Guess there always will be, and they won't be alone, why do that? Less they have to pay.
That has nothing to do with taste. You could be blasting Dave Brubeck and the next song is an Ai drum solo.
