YouTube desperately needs to fix the recommendations for music. It’s either recommending me the same music I already listen to and is irrelevant to what I’m currently playing or something irrelevant to my taste and the video being watched. Think watching an Ice Cube video but having recommendations for Megadeth and Alice In Chains and Adele on the side. And if it’s not something I’ve already watched/listened to, it’s still something totally unrelated.

For the longest time, they kept recommending “Beck - Loser” to me on anything I would watch, regardless of genre. I’ve never listened to or searched for any of Beck’s music and I don’t know how that would be recommended to someone currently watching an Ice Cube music video…

And the live performances…I don’t ever watch or listen to live performances. Yet YouTube always recommends it to me. Even having a whole section dedicated to “Live Music”. Never asked for this, never searched for it…I don’t care for Live performances. I want studio only.

And what’s worse is that YouTube has a feature to tell it “Don’t recommend this video - because I watched it or don’t like it” or “don’t recommend this channel” EXCEPT for music! Why????

YouTube desperately needs to fix the recommendations for music.

I mean, I guess if someone has a YouTube account, there's nothing wrong with using YouTube as a music recommendations system, but it isn't really the first thing I'd think of. I mean, music isn't really what it was designed for.

And YouTube doesn't know what a user would listen to offline, so unless all their music-listening is from YouTube tracks...I'm not sure how representative the listening data would be of what a user would listen to.

I don't use them, because I don't really want to hand them a profile of me, but if I wanted to get music recommendations, I'd probably use something like Audioscrobbler, which was designed for building a profile on someone's music-listening habits and then handing them recommendations based on that.

Do note that this is in my “All” videos recommended feed, not just filtered for music

YouTube has a recommendation system already in place and it generally works for me except for music.

I don’t use it as my main source of music, but it’s convenient at some times like putting on music on my Apple TV while I work or if I am on my computer and don’t have my offline music library available. Or if I want to see the music video because I like the video that goes with the music. I used to use it to find new artists based on my existing taste, but whenever they broke the search/suggestions is when that all stopped for me and now I just use it for the same music or if I found a new artist and want to quickly check out their music.

There’s no reason for it to be this shitty. It seems intentional on their part. Maybe making money from paid spotlights under the guise of “recommendations”.
