My son showed me this site yesterday. You enter the name of any song or artist, and they program a radio station just for you with suggestions of similar music. You can give their suggestions the thumbs up or down and it takes note, sort of the way Netflix suggests movies based on your feedback.

It is cool. Deep library as well.
I believe it was posted here a few years ago... and then again a bit more recently.

I listen to often and enjoy it.

I used to love that feature in Musicmatch. I listed around 20 artists and it would create the station. I'll check this one out.

It's great. I've set up several different "stations" (blues, rock, acoustic - you can basically tune in any genre by just picking a few artists). I've been listening to it for quite a while.

Pandora might have a problem with a new fee structure for internet music: http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/businesstechnology/2008136085...

That would be a shame. I already found a couple of new artists to listen to because my station suggested them, and I plan on buying their music.
