Pandora

in Web

Pandora is a music site that lets you find and listen to songs that are similar to your tastes. You choose a song or artist, and they use the various aspects of that song to find similar ones that you might enjoy. It’s from the people who started the Music Genome Project.

The songs play in a flash movie and you can switch to various stations that are each based on a certain artist or song. You can mark whether you like a song that plays, and whether you want to hear more like it or never hear it again. This is all very cool in my opinion.

There is even an unofficial method to save the mp3s of the suggested songs so that you can listen to them on an mp3 player. It requires running a java app that constantly checks to see if a new song is playing and will copy it to your output folder in MP3 format. It also tags the MP3 with the artist and song title.
