The truth is that Pandora cannot keep up with the current rate of music as it is. They currently can list about 10,000 tracks a month and there are about that many albums (each with several tracks) made per month. Second, even though you would like to think so, your decisions about what you like does not entirely depend on raw acoustic attributes. Andy,

We're mixing automated analysis of what people are already saying with what it sounds like. The human touch is still the driving force, we wouldn't have it any other way.
