Pretty sure Spotify's Discover Weekly works specifically because of the constraint they set up for themselves. It's updated once a week, and there is a finite number of songs in the list. With other services, people turn on the "recommended" station and expect an infinite stream of music that they will like.

  What is it about it that "works"?
