A Pandora box worth opening
I have recently heard about a new music service called Pandora. What they do, in a nutshell, is give you a little box in your browser window where you type a name of an artist or a song you like. Then, the Pandora box plays for you high quality songs by the artist you chose as well as by other artists with similar music and mood.
That's very simple and it works just great. The name of the song or arist you chose becomes the name of a 'radio station' you can switch to whenever you are in the mood (you can keep a hundred stations). You can share the stations you create with friends by email and if they're not subscribed to Pandora they get free 10 hours to use Pandora, listening to your station or to other stations they create.
Subscribing to Pandora costs $36 per year. I think it well worths it. By the way, it works with Internet Explorer and Firefox on Windows and with Safari on OSX. It requires Flash v6 or v7.
