Discover Weekly Success Measurement

Spotify's Discover Weekly playlist has been live for years, but leadership wants a rigorous success measurement framework. The playlist generates high play counts, but the team debates whether play-through rate or save-to-library rate is the better signal of genuine discovery. You need to define success metrics, segment by user type, and propose an experiment design for testing algorithm changes.
