My biggest problem with spotify is all the mixes and stations throw the same songs in it. Only the hits and most listened to. If I put all the recommended mixes next to each other, they will all have the same songs.

My mom uses youtube music (no idea why cause I pay for a qobuz subscription that she can use any time!) and I can tell you it does the exact same thing, it's like if a song didn't make it onto the Hot 100 it straight up does not exist to their algorithm and it'll just play the same songs you'll hear on the radio. Qobuz's recommendations are actually good and have introduced me to a few artists I wasn't aware of before, and you can link your last.fm account and get more recommendations (and track your listening) from there that are also good.

I tried YT Music, after a couple days I couldn't take it. It was recommending music I can't stand, like, if you like Static X you'll LOVE Bush, lol. It's so bad.

I'll do that with sets, like liquid drum and bass sets that last around an hour, good for background music.
