Just discovered pandora... Am I behind the curve?

What a neat site and concept:
www.pandora.com

Found it stumbling around looking for Glass Pipe by Joseph Arthur (alltunes doesn't have it for some reason)

Punched in Calexico for an artist and I've got a nice stream of instrumentals keeping me company. Need to figure out how to tweek it though... lots of strings, no brass so far.

Pandora is very nice,since i cut my subscription to Rhapsody, Pandora has been one of my main music resources. When you make your station you want to listen to you can vote the good songs and out the ones you dont like. They usually keep the jams coming.

I think they were in trouble with the RIAA a little while ago. I started using it about a year ago, but haven't used it recently.

Vladimir Cosmonaut curses the RIAA and imports his tunes from Russia.

Thumbs up

Interesting. They can get away with this because you can't choose your songs and they don't play all the same artist. Still, if you like a particular style, it works really well. I'll have to set it up at work.

Nice find, Gomer.
