OK, I'm sure someone has already discovered this amazing
"radio station". It's called Pandora and the link is:
http://www.pandora.com/

This site, over time, is programmable in so many ways and it's FREE!

Worth a look and a listen.

Peace
James

Pandora is in danger of extinction due to the RIAA/SoundExchange's ridiculous royalty rates. This is a great way to discover new music so of course it has to be obliterated by people who want to turn back the clock. Only thing is that if you try to set up a station based on a "smooth jazz" artist you get a bunch of covers and sappy slow songs, no matter how many thumbs down you give to songs that sound like that. I love what my Bruce Hornsby/Maroon 5 channel feeds me though.

As a composer/recording artist, I have mixed feelings about Pandora's possible, imminent(sp?) extinction.
On one hand, I hate to hear the possibility as I now have my "stations" programmed, after many months - On the other hand, I'm for the artist getting his/her just due... but it is a pretty cool deal.
