I absolutely agree; whatever algorithm (or lack of) that Apple uses is a far cry from the detail-oriented work they do on most other things.

Not only do my Genius recommendations rarely change, the hit rate of things I actually want to play that is recommended to me is something like 4%.

Google seems a bit better at this, but Apple is awful at this... like "Dear god just acquire some company that is recommending toothbrushes and adapt their algorithm" bad.

At least from a user perspective.
