Pandora Internet Radio

Bored of listening to the same songs repeated hourly on the radio? Looking for a new favorite song or artist? Thanks to Pandora Internet radio there is an easy solution. I recently re-discovered my Pandora account and after weeks of compulsive use I cannot remember why I ever gave it up. The concept is brilliant: just choose your favorite musician or music style and the site generates songs, through their ‘music genome project’, that the user would enjoy based on that selection. The best part? The site is FREE. While you can pay to upgrade your account to an ad-less version called Pandora One, the website grants about 40 hours of free music per month. I’m down to 27 hours after two weeks. The Internet radio allows you to skip songs (up to 6 per hour to protect advertisers), bookmark favorites to build a music profile, and ‘like’ or ‘dislike’ songs, which influences subsequent song plays. Sound familiar? The website links to Facebook, which further narrows results based on your profile page, and alerts you when FB friends ‘like’ the same song or musician. This seemingly omniscient musical device can be universally appreciated by music-lovers of all kinds. So set up an account, and get ready to devote hours toward exploring your personalized musical world.
