If anyone is looking to hop into making a music streaming service, now would be a good time.

If you can make one that has two simple features:

1) A playlist that lets you play it at random, but without repeating any tracks until it has been through the whole playlist

2) Promises no AI content

They haven't made a promise of no AI yet, but Qobuz is the closest you can get to this.
