The commenting feature now provided by AWA enables you to comment on each artist, album, song, and playlist. You can freely write your recommendations, impressions, and other opinions.
With the spread of music subscription services, we can listen to all the music we want for a fixed fee. We also receive music recommendations automatically based on our listening inclinations. So it is easier to discover music we like. Although the automatic music recommendations we receive suit our preferences well, we do not learn about the song's history, market, and ratings by others. Although it has become convenient, we are now entering an age where the music experience itself makes it easy to make oneself complete. There are fewer chances to learn more about each song.
AWA has provided content mainly based on ordinary users' playlists. People could discover music based on other people's knowledge and impressions. However, this new commenting feature enables users to freely comment on each song even without having playlists.
Also, on each song's page, you can view comments from others. You can then gain new insights from high-quality comments by expert people. By reading the opinions of many people, you can further love the music and discover other types of music with your new knowledge and feelings.
We will soon release new rankings such as "Realtime Commented Artist Chart" and "Realtime Commented Track Chart" reflecting user comments. Look forward to it.
Also, with the release of the commenting feature, we now have media and music writers expert in different music genres as official AWA users who will use the commenting feature to post their recommendations and song highlights. You can enjoy this too.
