While that's true, I think the 1st "maybe" is way smaller than the 2nd 1. After all, people usually care almost exclusively for themselves when posting on an open forum.

I wish you didn't do that cause I can't not analyse these communications to see where they went wrong in their musical analysis. I am still trying to grasp this whole concept of "musical taste analysis" and what it entails. So I like to see it in action in a thread on the forum.
Well, I guess we can follow what analysts in real life do, or perhaps even the way companies like Google, MS or FB dissect their data. With a list of songs in hand, they'll be able to churn out info like what range of song length does the customer loves, or pinpoint the geographical region their client currently resides. A bit creepy, right? So in my vision, we don't go down such depths but somewhere in between, like I've listed some result examples in the OP post.

Gee whiz, I am not sure about that theory. It is possible.
One of the traits of an ENTJs are they are "strategic thinkers" and perhaps you think "musical taste analysis" is the best strategy?
Thinking that way, IMHO it's not wrong I figured that 1 man can't listen to all music ever made in his lifetime. So in order to find only good music, the best way is to use collective knowledge of the mass to find out what his taste is, i.e. what's good for him.
There are actually some sites on the internet that attempt to do it. In 1, you listen to its music, and it'll deduce what you may like based on the songs you pressed "Like" before. Cool & practical idea, only that the database is small & US-centric. Another site displays artists you may like based on the last artist you select. Not nearly as good and didn't work for me.


@Frownland: thanks for the recs, but I didn't actually ask for recs lol. They're not to my taste, unfortunately.
