Spotify has an IDM Classics Playlist that I like (I'm sure tohno-users are aware of Aphex Twin, even if they're not particularly keen on the genre he works in).
Spotify also has a Radio feature where it plays music in what's actually an infinitely long playlist. Its algorithms just keeps generating new tracks for you to listen to based on their similarity to either the song you selected for "Radio'ing" (Spotify calls this "Song Radio"), the Artist you selected for Radio'ing (Artist Radio) or the collection of songs in a playlist you found or created (Playlist Radio). The songs suggested are also based off of how much you like the song i.e. how many times you've listened to it.
Spotify also has compatibility with Last.fm, a website that datalogs what songs you've listened to, when and how many times.
Spotify also has a Miku Playlist, if you're interested.
Finally, Spotify is free to use. It's just that you'll have to listen to adverts whilst using it if you don't pay for a subscription. I think, if you're not paying, the Radio feature is great because then it works just like a real radio in the sense that you're just constantly getting different songs to listen to along with the occasional advert. The problem with not paying of course is when you want to listen to an album. Listening to adverts midway through an album was such a jarring experience, I decided to just pay for it.
So yeah, I'm typically going through the IDM Classic playlist on Spotify whilst imageboard-browsing these days. I intend to listen to the whole playlist but once I've done that, I'll just play the Playlist Radio and see what new stuff I discover. Then, I think I'll explore the albums and artists of the songs I liked from the playlist and all of the Radio'ing of the playlist I did before finally moving on to some other genre. By the end of it all, I should have quite a sizeable collection of IDM to listen to.
