Pandora’s main goal is to play only music the listener will love. The responses to my survey indicated that Pandora has accomplished their goal. All of the listeners responded that the predictions were entirely accurate and that they were satisfied with the results. The reasons given by Pandora behind each song choice were almost exactly on point to the listener’s perspectives. Although the listeners were discomforted by the exactness of their results, they mostly were willing to invest in the future of this product. This trend of satisfaction is depicted in my graph. It illustrates the answers to these question, “How accurate were the predictions?” and “Did you like the songs they chose?”. Unanimously, the listeners ranked this question a five, demonstrating that Pandora has accomplished its goal. I think, in the visual cues of my graph, and simply the results, that is a very telling response. My results demonstrate that although people may be discomforted by the means of establishing the song choices, listeners in general are impressed by the precise predictions they received in considering their music tastes.
