I listen to a lot of old music - 1950s, 1960s. I don't really have peers who listen to it so discoverability is a real issue. Pandora was amazing for me ~20 years ago, it introduced me to songs I never would have heard. Especially in the 50s you had a lot of "one hit wonders" so just listening to a band wasn't a great way to find other songs that I would like.

I don't really use Spotify so I can't compare but Pandora was awesome. I've found Youtube playlists to be the best replacement so far.

		>just harder to find But this is the problem. Before, people where naturally exposed to classical and jazz and OSTs etc. This is the problem with current society.

You do realize Pandora is still there, right?

		Not really. I stopped using it at some point a very, very long time ago, and I don't recall why. I've moved to Youtube so it hasn't occurred to me to revisit.
