It can be a bad thing if you rely solely on it.

But it's really not any different than finding new music on the radio.

I’ve been of the same opinion about getting all of one’s music from the radio since I was very young, as well hahaha

I don't disagree. My music preference was shaped by my cousin marrying a Mormon and giving me several CD spindles of rock music he wasn't allowed to listen to anymore.

Although that was more of an expansion of my repertoire because I was already into nu metal as a kid.

hehe i just commented that to you. I got my best collection of blues off the radio because Hell Yeah NPR and a cassette tape recorder.
