1) Did you like each of the songs Pandora chose?
2) How well do the musical elements Pandora identifies correspond with those you listed?
3) What's your reaction to the possibility that this company might be able to write an algorithm that predicts your musical taste? 

My data suggested that people seems pretty happy with their experience with Pandora. However, what struck me as interesting is that one subject said that she was really like the song that Pandora pick out for her but completely disagree with their reason for choosing it. It seems that she is contradicting herself a bit because she also said that she have a possible reaction to it choosing the song for her. I think that there are more reasons than the reasons she said she like the artist. Pandora pick out the songs for her does not belong only to the artist and the reasons they give must have been right because she like the song they suggested to her. I think to go more into this I would have to ask her to listen to more song on Pandora to see if this trend still occurs.
