Why score by context instead of one global score?

Recommendation quality is context-dependent. Commute, work, and workout sessions have different success criteria.

What if both platforms are very close?

If the score gap is small, optimize for ecosystem fit, total subscription cost, and migration friction.

Migrate your top 3-5 high-frequency playlists first, run a one-week real usage check, then complete full migration.
