??? Why Don't More Streaming Services Do This ???


 I’ve had Pandora + for many many years now..I’ve tried Tidal,Spotify & Qobuz but after having access to the unique Pandora search algorithm those other services seem too difficult to find new music & artists..
 With Pandora + I just have to enter 1 single song or artist & an entire world of similar style music & artists opens up..To me,those other services are like owning an huge library of music without the ability to easily explore similar styles or artists...
 Yes I will admit the quality of sound from the other services is slightly better,but not enough for me to justify the extra cost on a monthly basis..Why don’t these other services offer a suggestion/search algorithm similar to Pandora in addition to the higher resolution they offer?

Pretty much the same question as why isn’t there a United States TikTok. Seems like nobody wants to share their algorithms unless a boatload of bananas come along with it. I find it amazing that there are so many music streaming services available. Each one seemingly able to carve out a niche and survive. Just wait until AI gets involved it will make the Pandora algorithm look like a first grade math problem. First couple of guys who figure that out are gonna be pretty rich. 

I feel your pain. I was a big Pandora fan too. If you want the best of both worlds, you would need Roon with one of the better sounding streaming services (Tidal or Qobuz). That’s expensive. Worth it? If you can swing it.

Why are you even here?  Go enjoy Spotify and hang out on Reddit.
