I always preferred Yahoo Launch. List your favourite artists, then they find other people who also like those artists and play you things that those people like. Last time I tried the service, though, it was either gone or broken.
I tried Pandora once, back when they still liked Canada. They only wanted one artist. I entered Bjork. They gave me Madonna and Jewel. I gave up right then.
The machine has got to be accepted, but it is probably better to accept it rather as one accepts a drug -- that is, grudgingly and suspiciously. Like a drug, the machine is useful, dangerous, and habit-forming.
--George Orwell, novelist (1903-1950)
