Pandora Radio




ok no music, instead an indispensable tool for music hunting :P
simply feed the name of the band/musician you are looking for and it will stream songs by them - and others like them - to your computer. good to either just sit and listen to search for new music. it even customizes itself to your tastes through a "thumbs up" and "thumbs down" system. really great stuff.
