In summary, Pandora is a website that creates a personalized radio station based on the artists and songs you like. It is free and a great way to discover new music. It is similar to Launch, but has a 10 hour limit. Other users suggest that Launch may have a larger music database.

If you like music at all, this site is brilliant.

What you do is enter in artists or songs you like into this website, and it will compile a radio station for you that will randomly play songs by the artists you've entered or simmilar to them.

It's so awesome, I'm in love.

I suppose it'd also be a great way to check out bands you're considering buying CD's of, to see if you like a random sampling of their library.

AND IT'S FREE!

And you could also record those songs right off the speaker using some program/s...

How is this different from www.launch.com[/URL]

You put in a song, you listen to the song you want to hear, and then it plays songs which sound similar...

I guess the only difference with Launch and pandora, is that launch has no 10 hr limit.

I dunno, but I would guess launch isn't as cool. Will launch play Kyuss songs? How about E-40?

<edit>Holy crap... Yahoo has Kyuss and E-40 in their database. That's ridiculous...</edit>

But who's listening to music from one source for 10 hours anyway?

I've used Launch for a few years. After a while, you've built up too many songs to want to change.
Of course, I don't even know who Kyuss and E-40 are.:redface:

I was thinking that the 10 hrs is accumalitive.

I don't even know who Kyuss and E-40 are.

Neither do I.

Kyuss is a mellow hard rock band; the Guitarist/singer and Bassist of Queens of the Stone Age were in Kyuss before they formed Queens of the Stone Age. E-40 is a really crazy/creative rapper who made up tons of the slang that all rappers use today.
