I don't think this is a fair assessment of Spotify. I discover new music all the time through Spotify, here's what I do.

Choose a song, artist or playlist that you really enjoy, right click and select "Go to _______ radio". Spotify will instantly generate a whole new playlist for you based on the selected song/artist/playlist.

I've spent hours discovering new music this way, good luck.

Sadly it always includes songs that I have already liked in every radio that I make and it forces me to listen the same song over and over again until I hate it. I would like radio to suggest music that I haven't liked already...

Maybe Apple Music is a lot worse than Spotify's Artist Radio, because unlike the author, I find lots of awesome new music through Artist Radio. It does work better if you use an obscure artist for your recommendations though.
