Pandora!

Alright… Who uses Pandora?

Recently I was away from my laptop and iPod and I needed to listen to music.
I always knew about Pandora and used it a few times but never really needed it as my music collection is pretty big.
Well, let me tell you. With customizing and tweaking, Pandora will find songs you know and love (if you know and love lots of songs) and find songs you instantly enjoy that you didn’t even know existed.

It does have flaws though. If you’re really not liking many of it’s recommendations, you’re SOL because you have a limited number of skips per hour. Also, thumbs-upping songs will sometimes cause that song to repeat many, many times.

A workaround is banning that song for a month. Unfortunately, there’s no middle-ground like a “play less frequently” button.
