Additionally to listing your favorite artists and genres, there are seven different kinds of users that you are asked to choose from in order to create your profile:

• Music is a huge part of my identity, and my friends know it. I’m always listening to new music, and I stay up-to-date with big music trends.
• I like discovering new music, but it’s not a huge part of my life. I often listen to music while socializing, gaming, or eating.
• I like staying in the know and being part of a music community, although I don’t have super strong opinions about music. I don’t want to miss out on the latest music trends.
• I like to listen to the same music over and over.
• I use music to change the mood and make moments more enjoyable. I usually rely on music services to stream music for me.
• I like to listen to nostalgic music, and I usually listen to music in the background while doing chores, travelling, commuting, or working out.
• Music defines and inspires me. I am highly opinionated about music, and I don’t care as much about music that is considered popular.
