I was introduce to this website about 3 years ago by one of my old friends.
What you do it go to the website, type in the name of a song/artist which you are interested in, and click ok.

The website will then gather a shit load of songs/bands SIMILAR to the one you like, and just play a never ending list of music for you.

You can give it a thumbs up/down so it will know weather you like the song or not, so it knows as to play it again or not.

You can also 'bookmark' the song. What this does is add it to a little list, which you can see later, and download all of the songs.

You can only skip though a certain number of songs per hour, but you can simple just create another 'station' by typing in another artist/song name.

If you dont skip though any songs though its nonstop music.

What i do is just type in band/artist (which is later saved so you dont always have to type it in) and just leave it playing in the back.
When a particular song catches my attention, i unminize, bookmark the song, and continue with my stuff.

At arround the end of each week, i go to my list of bookmarked songs, and just download them all, and add them to my iPod.

Iv discovered TONS of awesome bands and songs using this website, a lot of theme arent too mainstream/overplayed, so you can show off your awesome unique collection of music.

Enjoy, and tell me how you all like it =).

Oh my goodness.
I've used it for 10 minutes, and found 3 new awesome artists, and the other two that came up were ones I already knew.
Thanks so much.

Playlist.com > Pandora.com ;)

Not really a comparison.

Pandora is for finding new music/bands that are not very well known ect ect.

Playlists is just for compiling a playlist of songs you already know, and posting them on your facebook/myspace to show everyone what kind of music you listen to.

Pandora isn't bad but I really prefer last.fm (www.last.fm)

Just a quick question for any other pandora users. Does Pandora hog up a lot of memory? Mine likes to. I was playing it in firefox for about 3 or so hours and when I looked at my RAM usage on my G15 it was at 70% of 2 gigs so I looked at task manager and firefox was using 400,000 K of my RAM and pandora was the only firefox open.

Anyone else have this problem?

=/ that doesn't happen to me, i think there are ways to stop ho much ram/memory firefox uses.
I seem to have problems with firefox memory every now and then, but it never makes my computer laggy, just says that firefox is using a lot of memory.
Just restart firefox and it should be fine once again.

I tried and since Canada has gay music rules...Pandora doesn't work!
But we aren't prosecuted for downloading music!!! BooYah!!!
