Music Industry Professionals' Survey on Streaming and Recommendations, 2023

Questionnaire response data retrieved from participants at the Eurosonic Noorderslag 2023 conference. The dataset explores the perspectives of music industry professionals on music streaming services and recommender systems. It was created by researchers including Karlijn Dinnissen and is associated with a 2023 ACM conference paper.

Use Cases

• Analyze perceptions of transparency and controllability in music recommender systems based on survey responses.
• Study the desired role of streaming services in promoting listening diversity based on professional feedback.
• Investigate the significance of streaming services and recommender systems in music industry jobs based on questionnaire data.

Strengths

• Data is available in multiple common formats (.xlsx, .csv, .tsv) for accessibility.
• The complete questionnaire is published separately, providing documentation for the survey instrument.
• Data is explicitly linked to a peer-reviewed ACM conference paper from 2023.

Limitations

• Row count and dataset size are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download or from the separate questionnaire.
