This may have been going on for a while, but I just noticed that Apple is now providing personalized music recommendations through the ITMS. Presumably, the recommendations are based mainly on previous purchases and on your responses to the recommendations. I played around with this feature today. The results were both obvious (showing me every album by artists I've already bought or say I own), to random (suggesting music that's got no clear connection to any music I've ever bought). Maybe it's intentional, or that's why they're calling it a beta, but the system doesn't seem very smart.
Has anyone else tried this feature? Reactions?
