Everything I have tried so far has resulted in an error. The program tells me that it is not my fault though 
edit... ok it is working now, let's test this thing out.

Wow, this is awesome. Thanks for sharing this dduardo.
It only gives you 10 hrs though. I guess you could beat that by using a proxy.

I thought music radio stations on the web were illegal. What's up with pandora? Are all of them anti-legal?

It isn't illegal to have a radio station if your paying royalties, which is exactly what they are doing.
Btw, if you clear your Flash cache you can continue to play songs forever.
