On: Ask YC: feedback on my music recommendation app (round 2)

[mstefff]

got 2 (way off) recommendations for my favorite band.

my opinion is that this space is wayyyy too crowded (huge players involved) and to take any market share seems impossible.

Which band was that?

[mstefff → maryrosecook]

dream theater

[mstefff → mstefff]

it's a rare genre but i've used several music sites and recommendation engines that had spot-on choices. (last.fm, itunes, pandora, amazon, and that spiderweb-like thing i can never remember the name of, etc)

Yep, only two recommendations for a quite famous band is not great. I'll put cock/prog-rock on the list of missing under-represented genres.

Thanks.
