DISCLAIMER : I DO NOT WORK FOR ANY ONE OR ANY COMPANY AFFILIATED WITH THE LINK I AM POSTING. Have you guys seen Pandora ? Enter in an artist or song you like and it will play other music you may like as well. It is a great find for the audiophile who wants to discover new artists… After a while they require you to register, but it is free. Take a peek, and don’t forget to post to tell me how cool the site, and I by extension, are! 😉 ---

I’m quite liking this - found a couple of bands I might just have a look around for when i’m next shopping. The only problem is it’s a bit NA-Centric - i’m having some trouble finding a couple of lesser-known british bands. I guess that’s to be expected, though. ---

**newcrasher** that rocks. It’s hard enough to find someplace to drop the psychobilly I like, and it’s even harder to find the Island music that I get in the mood for in the wintertime. Awesome find, dude (or chick). You are the coolestest ---

Thanks from me too. I tried putting in “Kirsty MacColl” and at first it didn’t match her right; I was interested in her Latin/Cuban-influenced sounds and the system matched her other music. So then I tried putting in several of her Latin songs but the only one Pandora recognized was “In These Shoes?” - but not her version; it offered Bette Midler’s cover. Still though, the songs suggested were exactly the type of music I was looking for, by artists I never would have thought of listening to. So thanks! ---

I saw this first in one of the other threads, it’s really cool! The bitrate must be pretty high, the sound quality is quite good. I hope this lasts! Launchcast had a similar concept, then it got bought by Yahoo and the bitrate is low for free users. ---
