I think it depends a lot on your taste. The more poppy your listening habits are, the worse the recommendations seem to be.

I listen almost exlusively to hard rock and metal, and all of my auto-generated playlists are absolutely stellar in their selection.

It seems that once Spotify lumps you in with a specific segment, it's hard to get out of it again.

I'm more of a Downtempo fan, and I feel nobody does music discovery quite like Spotify. I've had a better than excellent experience in this regard.
