An additional thought. Maybe I don't think much about integrating social
music life simply because I'm not in the habit of doing it.  So maybe it
would revolutionize my music listening (as the Squeezebox ecosystem has
done for me).  So if done well, I might come to love it. I'm an old guy,
but when I think back to my teen years, essentially every day was
integrated social life with music, as my friends and I constantly talked
about music, bands, concerts, and loaned each other records, made tape
copies (reel to reel in pre-cassette days!) and hung on every word of
our "underground FM" radio DJs (something  new at the time).  With
current technology I guess I could recreate that.  I do know that there
are people on this very forum that I find have similar music tastes to
me and their recommendations I take seriously and I'm always impressed
to find something new (to me) and interesting.

Bottom line, quality radio is no longer my source of new info so some
alternatives to learn about new music is a very good thing and does
require two way communication (my recommendations to others and theirs
to me).  I suppose asking me about preferences for sharing is sort of
like asking me how I might use a Squeezebox before I had one.  At the
time I purchased my first one (a boom), I thought it would be nice to
listen to internet radio in bed.  Obviously, based on my signature info
my use of SB has changed. So my use of social media/music info sharing
is likely to change once I'm aware of/comfortable with the tools.
