I don't like turntable. While the idea is appealing (streaming music for friends or strangers), the UI is awful. There's too much color and illustrations are not helping. I would be happy to help if founders are reading this.
I think the color and illustrations are what give it its appeal. It isn't your run of the mill streaming service, its fun and it has its own character. I currently pay for rdio and would probably pay a minimal amount for turntable.fm also if it came to that being what had to be done to keep it around.
If by 'illustrations' you mean the avatars... well, I'd argue that they are helping. Turntable seems deliberately colourful and kitchy to me. It's part of their image- if it was a Pandora-like page with a list of people's names it wouldn't be that interesting.
