In this graph, the majority of the subjects thought that Pandora did not find songs that had the same elements as their initial song had. No one voted a five (most accurate) although two people voted ones (completely inaccurate). My subject pool was some relatives (parents' age), an old friend (18 years) and my cello teacher (mid-late twenties). Interestingly, I found that people weren't as impressed with Pandora as much as I had anticipated. Most of the subjects, mainly my mom and my grandmother, didn't approve of Pandora. In their opinion Pandora missed the point of their songs/composer and choose newer and irrelevant. I was curious to see what my cello teacher would think of the program. Being in his mid-late twenties, he followed a similar trend as the younger subjects. He was critical of the choices Pandora made (the second song he deemed inaccurate 1) but he would invest heavily in the company. Here's my vast generalization: The younger the subjects were, the more positively they viewed Pandora overall.
