Well heres one example, Blogs. I visit a lot of blogs on a daily basis because the people running them review then post links to bands that are often unsigned and unknown. Now I have a much better chance at liking what I download because these people clearly have similar tastes and influences as myself.
Last FM/Pandora and lots of other music services have small self released stuff on there not just big label stuff. I see your point in listening to more ****ty stuff, but as you become better at navigating the Internets music resources I think your chances of finding something you like also grow exponentially.
And hell what about this website, I know the members that have certain tastes, so if they recommend something theirs a good chance I will like it.
