Miles Davis is evidently my favorite artist &#8211; 3653 songs played. Davis was also my favorite for the past year so my taste has some stability. However, Rodriquez was my second favorite artist for the past year despite just becoming familiar with his work from a 60 minutes program (if I remember correctly).<\/p>\n<p>I do sometimes use the social feature of this service to identify others with similar interest and to find new artists I might like.
