Simply the best site I have listened to, tell it what music you like, and it plays it. Brilliant.

Pandora is a great site. I've created multiple radio stations on their site. I listened to it everyday while I surf the net.

I've heard songs on that site I haven't heard in more than 25 years. Great songs that they don't play on the radio anymore. Plus you'll hear new songs that sound similar to the music you like.

After you create a station with all the artists or songs that you like, remember to rate the songs as they play. The service will remember what you like and won't play the songs you rated poorly. They really fine tune your stations if you rate the songs.

The service lets you skip 6 songs(songs you don't want to hear) an hour on each radio station. But you can switch back and forth between multiple stations to skip songs. Most of the time you'll let the songs play because their service does a great job of picking songs you like.

Best of all, the service is FREE!

I never tried Pandora the one place I do listen to all kinds of good music is

WWW.live365.com

It plays every genre of music and is free as well you can search all the music and if you register there you can save the stations you like as presets and it's all on 24/7/365. Best part is there are no commercials that I have heard.

Paul, I really can't thank you enough. I listen to it every day and it plays what I like. I guess when the day comes when it is no longer free, I'll just have to pay. There will be no other choice.

You're welcome Liz, I listen to it all the time too, what I really like is I normally listen to teh blues, but every now and then some chilled out music is needed, just change channels.

Me too. I love the blues. I also enjoy Jazz from before my time, like Sara Vaughn, Ella, and Bruebeck. Anyway, a million thanks.

PC Magazine calls it Pandora on steroids.

Here's a link to the PC Magazine review of 12 music sites.

Sadly we can no longer get Pandora in the UK. The licensing authorities in the UK are just too greedy.

I'd like to thank Tim Westergren and his team at Pandora for many hours of enjoyment.

I lost pandora at work, but found www.last.fm which is just as good. And I know you can get it across the pond too!
