Pandora Survey

      This was an interesting experience  because a few of the people I asked had a difficult time trying to list five reasons why they liked their specified artist. It led me to believe that they don't usually think about why they like the things that they do, which I can also relate to. Most of the people I asked were surprised by how well Pandora could predict their likes and dislikes. None of them were at all bothered by the idea that a website could guess these things about them from just knowing one favorite artist. In general, the songs all recieved very high ratings, and people agreed with the reasons. Although people liked the website, they were ambivalent about investing in the company.
