People say this, but AI artists keep getting listens on music platforms, doing at least as well as human artists if the listener is making a blind choice.
Expressing a preference between two choices is not how I would measure what listeners want. What they should have been testing is whether the listener ends up playing the track over and over and singing along to every word of the track. I think you would end up with a very different conclusion if you measured passion and not preference. This study merely reflects what the companies want to measure.

Sure. Kid Rock also sold more records than the Pixies.
