My opinion is that it doesn't really matter. People want to be able to access that variety of music even if it is only just a couple of times a year. Throwing a playlist like that on shuffle can be a way to discover new music you like as well. Yeah I’m not really sure on your last question. My opinion is that it doesn’t really matter.
