I can't help but feel that you're doing it wrong?

Spotify playlists are beautiful because you subscribe to it. The playlists are updated and curated continuously. This is true of the Spotify-published playlists and those of musicians, celebrities, etc.

Sure, i know what you're saying. The playlists I do subscribe to are indeed updated continuously. However updates are relatively minor. A few songs from artists already on the list, maybe one or two totally new-to-me artists every other week. I'm not saying it's nothing but I want more.

Spotify boasts a gigantic library, I cant imagine I've heard everything good (objectively) already. There has to be thousands of hours of material that I simply can't find that I'd otherwise love to hear.

Maybe I'm just subscribed to the wrong ones, but the Spotify playlists I'm subscribed to don't update that often, and they aren't that long. If I listen for hours a day, there's no way the Spotify playlists will keep up with providing new music. Pandora is better in that respect but worse in almost all others, unfortunately.
