Pandora Internet Radio

Auvers

A must for broadband users http://www.pandora.com/
I just stumbled across it a couple of days ago and all I can say is WOW.
I just love the way you can tailor your own channel, its a fantastic way to hear new bands that suit your taste, defiantly the future of radio broadcasting on the web.

I posted this already in the radio forum but thought I would alert people too it here, due to it being broadband dependent. Hope i dont get my knuckles rapped for cross posting

I've used it for a few months now. It is the certified dogs bollocks. It betters sliced bread.

It's excellent. Should I ever be able to get broadband, this will be one of the first things I'll be showing off. I'm stuck using it in Univerisity at the moment though.

Excellent! Thanks for the tip. I'm going to be up all night now

There's another one at http://www.garageband.com/. You tell it what music you're looking for and it comes back with a big list. Just tried it there again (only came across it this week) and it used to let you play everything that it returned as if it was one big playlist but I can't seem to reproduce that feature. I'm sure it's there somewhere.

i agree its a great site, i went on for the first time today, just 1 question when i select a song i like should just it play the whole song or is it just that i have a crap bb provider that makes it play for 5 seconds stop play for 5 seconds and so on ?

Tis', this past two months I've been thrawling through the countless bands on offer there, a brilliant way of discovering new music.
My fav new bands so far:

Breaking Benjamin.
Marmalade.
Trust Co.
The Actionslacks.
Endo.
Armen Van Helden.
The Libertines.
Babyshambles.
Eliment Eighty.
Steriomud.

Who wants to trade stations?

http://www.last.fm/ is also along those same lines, good stuff indeed.

It should play the whole song straight.
