Just discovered this free, streaming Internet music site today.

Pretty nifty service and a great concept.

Anyone else out there using Pandora.com?

I use it all the time, using it right now actually. It is great for listening to tons of different kinds of music. I hella like it.

As soon as ESPN radio goes to Screamin A. Smith at 1pm local time, I go to Pandora.

I've been using it for about 3 months. The only flaw is that it tends to repeat a lot of the same songs, so you need to create a lot of different lists. I think you can create up to 100 though

I dunno if pandora offers this, but www.grooveshark.com uses the same type of program to match styles of music and you can download the songs for a small fee.

Agreed. It is especially good if you want to find other bands that are similar to your current favorites. Great relationship - they provide streaming music and you feed their relational engine allowing them to provide a better experience. Think of it as muzak with feedback.

I have the client on my mobile phone. I use it as an alternative Cirrius or XM.

My daughter (the same age as many of you :wink: ) turned me on to this about a year ago.

I use pandora.com to find music I might like then search for it on ruckus.com and download it into the ruckus player for free. I think you need a university e-mail address to sign up for ruckus though.
