Have you ever felt the urge to stalk a person of interest's music taste. Since public music streaming services like Spotify, Last.fm, soundcloud etc make this information so readily available, have you followed through with "stalking" Did it change your perspective of them? Did it feel like more of an invasion of "privacy" than say facebook stalking due to the sort of intimacy of an individuals musical taste
I have to say I'm guilty of it and I'm a repeat offender. I honestly find it to be so interesting
Well i "stalk" my girlfriend, but thats about it. Just curious about what she listens to
Eli Butler
I only did that once, with my ex when I still wasn't over her. I do listen to playlists artists I like make though.
Mason Bell
Sometimes, I look at the playlists of my friends and stuff without them knowing and laugh at their pleb taste.
Owen Thompson
Is she a pleb? I do that too and I'm kind of ashemed of that because normally I'm really kind to them but then I see what their listened to and I'm making fun of them. Sometimes I even feel that I need to tell someone how bad their taste in music is nut I know that I will do that in a total asshole way.

When i use spotify to try out new music before downlaoding i used to stalk what other people were listening and, to be honest i got what i expected from that. Most of them only listen to stuff like 21 Pilots and Panic at the disco, the ones that listen to metal only listen to metalcore and nu-metal stuff like paparoach, bring me the horizon and avenged sevenfold. I dont like to act like i have a "superior" taste but watching college students still listening to High School tier generic stuff makes me disgusted. Like they never once in their life tried to get out of their confort zone and explore new stuff.
Nolan Watson
I have seen people in college that listen to metalcore, nu-metal, dad rock and poop punk who thinks that they have good taste in music because "nobody else knows about these bands", and "i was born in wrong generation".

I did it 4 years ago Now I disable every feature which lets other people see what I listen to
Christian Perry
I always thought that people who hide their top artists on spotify listen to something really bad even when their pretend not to. And it confirmed a couple weeks ago when it was an error on spotify so you could see what were listening even the people that disable this feature. I don't really feel the urge to hide what i'm listening like someone else, especially because I know that I have better taste than almost every person i know.
