I tried it out, but I still prefer Pandora or Grooveshark.

it's a source of free streaming music, check the link. . .

their library is incredibly vast-- i just searched miles davis and they must have at least fifty full, original albums. . . that's what i'm loving the most about it-- it's not just single tracks. . .

it does include "commercials," but they're very few and far between, and even then they're just brief ads for spotify-- no insurance or car commercials. . .

i'm not familiar with grooveshark. . . i've never liked pandora much-- cool idea, generally fails in practice for me. . .

Grooveshark is awesome. Great for work. I can set up hours of playlists on this thing http://grooveshark.com/

I love Spotify! I'm amazed at how deep their library is. I've found some pretty obscure artists and songs on there. I prefer it over Pandora because I can actually pick the songs I want to hear and make it way more personal.

pandora's cool enough for what it is. . . but spotify is to pandora what the '98 broncos were to that year's CU squad. . . i find myself amazed at some of the stuff they have available, and it grows all the time. . .

I've been tempted by Spotify, but I can't pull the trigger on it. I've been very happy using blip.fm to find new music (something I don't believe spotify will do for me) and using google music for the tracks that I own to stream to my phone.

How the hell do you set up playlists on Grooveshark? I tried for some time yesterday and couldn't figure it out. I'm not too impressed with their functionality so far.

First you create an account. Have you done that?

Yeah, the free one.

Yeah, the free one.

Ok, so in the top of the browser, go to MY Music, then click on Playlists on the left. In the main part of the screen, there should be a "New Playlist" button. Then as you are listening to tracks, you can use the drop down associated with the task to add it to your playlist.

Cool. Got it. I just created a quick playlist.

I'm listening to Under The Milky Way by The Church.

Is that song gay?
