For me, not really.  I like nearly everything, and anything I don't like which I've listened to never made it onto my last.fm. 

^ Oh gawd!!!  I'm not going to have to go back and count my selections now am I???   I understood there was not going to be any math in this question.

Indeed.  I whacked those few I kept but didn't like.  I also excluded the decomposing composers I like.

...  ... There is a difference between "like" and "listened to". I have Miles Davis on Pandora, but I'm still not into his music.

Indeed, a more descriptive way of saying "Everything I listened to."
