At the beginning of the episode, Kruwoski says, “the marginal, the rejected, the repressed is what the powerful have decided is of no use at that time.” What Kruwoski wants to tell us by this question is that things in the world change as time passes. For example, music is currently digitized, and we can get it simply by clicking on the different applications. We already have music closer to homes like on phones, computers, and smart TVs. It is no longer necessary to go to a store to buy a CD to listen to music. However, Kruwoski also highlights that we forget other ways of interacting with music with these technological advances. Music indicates the difference between the powerful and the outcast in many ways. An example of this is that mainstream artists are given better opportunities, but lesser-known artists are denied opportunities to prosper.

The difference that Krukowski affirms between being surprised by the music is like listening to songs that we have not heard before. However, they can be songs that are good or even better than expected. However, when we discover music, it may be different than what we are used to hearing. These experiences give us different types of sensations. They can be feelings of satisfaction or pleasure. User experiences are of great importance for music platforms, as they can provide relative answers about the music that users are looking for.

Forced Exposures is different from other platforms because they create different experiences to identify users. Forced Exposure provides us with additional songs and artists that users can choose from. However, Spotify uses algorithms based on the music we have searched for. These algorithms create a list of music based on what we might like by giving us a more comprehensive range of unknown music.
