“The new station will play a curated selection of songs based on what you’ve been listening to but haven’t heard before.”

Looks interesting. To me, Apple’s curated playlists have always been superior in quality to Spotify’s but they really don’t have as vas of a selection of curated playlists. Apple Music stations are often excellent, too, if you know how to crate them.

There are exceptions and I think Apple Music is one of them. They've been playing catch up with Spotify. I only have Apple Music because it's with the bundle of everything else.

Edit: grammar

That’s interesting. I had Spotify for a couple years and absolutely hated it. Moving to Apple Music was a much more enjoyable experience for me.

I found much better playlists on Spotify and you could make shared lists with friends. Those were the two biggest things I is.

Yeah, I’m not a playlist guy at all. All my friends tell me I’m lame and that it’s like a better version of the mixtape but to me a playlist has never been analogous to the mixtape or burned CD. With those formats you had quantifiable time limits so you had to be very selective about what went on them.

I’m an album purist at heart, I understand I’m in the massive minority but it is just who I am.
