Woot ! Found a pretty cool site
You all should check this one out ! It is a free online music stream service. It is similar to the
pay to play services such as Rhapsody, Yahoo, Emusic, Itunes. But this one is free if you don't mind a small banner ad in upper right hand corner. Or for $36 duckets you can register and have ads removed.
Pandora started in September of 2005 but really started about 6 years ago with the "Music Genome Project". This project was started buy a musician/Computer tech guy and a bunch of unemployed musical friends. They shared music with each other by what they liked. He thought he could do the same on internet with a larger group by people rating the music as it played. The evolution is Pandora. You create your own radio station and as you give a up it finds similar music or artists that have been tagged with similarities as the song that you rate. This makes your radio station always getting more focused on what your likes and dislikes are. Great way of finding new music.
To top that off the streams are 128 kb stereo. No software needs to be installed either uses your embedded flash player in your current operating system ( may need to upgrade ). Unlike
Yahoo! Music Unlimited, Pandora will work with FireFox too!
