Do you think you can identify a person based on just their music taste? Well, researchers say you can!
A study taken in Tel Aviv showed that 80% - 100% of participants were able to easily identify their peers based off of three songs in a playlist. The point of the study was to identify if music streaming services like Apple Music and Spotify are able to easily gather enough personal information of a person based on their choice in music.
“Music can become a form of characterization, and even an identifier. It provides commercial companies like Google and Spotify with additional and more in-depth information about us as users of these platforms. On the other hand, this knowledge can be used as a bridge between people and perhaps in the future lead to the creation of new diagnostic methods and fascinating intervention programs that will make use of people’s favorite music.”
