I have always been a music guy dating back to Napster and LimeWire. always downloading music. now I keep about 4 playlists going and always have a pad and paper next to me in case I hear something on TV that either I want to add or triggers a song I used to know. I used to download everything to my IPod from you tube with the YTtoMP3 converter, but the sound levels between songs drove me crazy So next, I started streaming music on Pandora when it came around and used Tidal for a while. after that I got into Spotify, but got tired of all the adds. About 4 years ago my wife said why don't you use Amazon music we already pay for it and it's commercial free. So, I switched and have been super happy with it. Very easy to add songs. Who are you guys and gals using now for your backyard jams???
Pandora and I pay to eliminate ads. The Music Genome Project, which is it's core music matching feature, lets me create stations from songs or artists then matches similar songs very, very well. It will occasionally inject a song that is a real earbug, which I will create a new station from and dive down that rabbit-hole. I love the old stuff but I like discovery even more. Fresh neural pathways and all that junk.
