Internet radios have been around almost as long as Al Gore invented it. But the problem with channel surfing internet radios is most of them are streaming and you can’t skip a song, plus the channels are created by a concrete block that the Industry has labeled. Now comes along the The Music Genome Project which has presented a different way to find the new music and enjoy Internet Radio again.
www.pandora.com - brings a simple way to find this new music and that is by listing the artists and songs you already like. This group of Musicians has been working on this project since 2000 analysising each song to bring you similar music that you like. Now I’ve been using the site for a short time, but I already am an addict. You create a radio station and place the artists and songs you like, then as new songs come up you either give the song a thumbs up or thumbs down and the site will chose new music based on what you like. They are building a community of custom radio stations based on different artists. I highly recommend anyone to give Pandora a try and open the Internet boom box.
I’ve tried Pandora. The songs are tuned in to your type of music. The way it adapts to the mood of songs you like is pretty handy. No more joggling to different stations.
Listening Now!!! I have now started making a second station. The problem is we might loose Pandora and other internet radios because of the RIAA and there royalty sword: http://blog.pandora.com/pandora/archives/2007/07/royalties_a_wee.html#comments
