Conversation Piece: Picks in the Marketplace

Zune Social: tromboneforhire | By: Marques Lyons | 3/24/2009 |

When you open the Zune Software and you click on Marketplace, you're taken to your PICKS page. Everyone knows that this page is designed to help you find like-minded listeners and new music that might be of interest to you based upon what you've already been listening to.
Now, me personally, I don't really use this page all that much. Sure, I'm curious to see what it tries to "sell" me, but then I end up going through the music tab and genres on my own and seeking out stuff. The like-minded listeners? I don't think I've become friends with anyone that was suggested on that list. Not because I don't want to, but maybe it's because it really doesn't tell me why I should make the effort to connect with them -- maybe that's just me.

So tell me: What do you think of the PICKS feature of the Zune Marketplace? Can it be improved? Should it be improved? How often (if at all) do you use it?
