  I don’t think OP is talking about mainstream music. I think OP is talking about mainstream music streaming services (i.e. Spotify)

  This is pretty true and a I love it.

  For all the ills of social media the internet has been an absolute godsend to musicians and music fans alike. We can find genres and sounds in clicking around curiously that most of us just wouldn’t have ever been exposed to without the internet.

  FWIW I try to purposefully spend some time “exploring” music on YT and Spotify, and I go out to local venues a lot. I’m a little older and having a wide library of good music helps me feel “in touch” with the world.

  I have this site bookmarked, this seems like a good place to post it: www.gnoosic.com
