Original Kurzfassung:
In this paper, we analyze a large dataset of user-generated music
listening events from Last.fm, focusing on users aged 6 to 18 years.
Our contribution is two-fold. First, we study the music genre preferences
of this young user group and analyze these preferences
for homogeneity within more fine-grained age groups and with
respect to gender and countries. Second, we investigate the performance
of a collaborative filtering recommender when tailoring
music recommendations to different age groups.We find that doing
so improves performance for all user groups up to 18 years, but
decreases performance for adult users aged 19 years and older.
