Am I the only one who finds movie reviews useful and music reviews completely useless?

@stilkov I think it's harder to write about music. But I've found concert reviews on allaboutjazz.com good for finding new music

@martinfowler Good point. But maybe you never find out you disagree because you don’t usually check out stuff that gets a bad review?

@stilkov Hm, I don’t like movie reviews because of spoilers, my ideal: 0 expectations, but often discover interesting music via @zeitonline

@fsteeg I never read the plot summary

@stilkov never in my life have I looked at a music review, so probably not.

@stilkov same here. IMHO that's because the relation to musicians & songs is more emotional and therefore highly subjective
