Spotify vs Pandora

[Vas Deferens]

spotify. ride or die.

i've been paying for the premium for a while now and wont go back. cant bring myself to ditch the thousands of CD's i own, but she'll take care of that soon i assume.

you can do everything I believe you can on pandora on spotify in terms of finding new songs, through the 'radio' function. add songs, artists, entire playlists, etc to a 'radio' channel you create and it will find songs for you. it also knows my daily routine and seems to put specific stations / suggestions in front of me by time of day or probably the machine im at (instrumental / lowfi while at work; 'Spank Rock’s Bangers & Cash' in the sheets).

i know people who enjoy pandora b/c of specific stations they've curated, but i honestly think you can do the same with spotify. unfortunately the amount of money behind spotify will always give them the advantage in song choice, advanced algorithms and breadth of library.

i know pandora opened the way, but dont understand why you wouldnt want to be able to play whatever specific song you want whenever you want.

also. i feel terrible for having adopted this technology, but im all in at this point.
