Pandora Radio - Stations based on your favorite Artists/Songs

Pandora Radio

Pandora has one mission: To play the music YOU love. I'm good with that and you will be too. Pandora is a free music service that helps you listen to and discover new music. It is quite simple to set up and use: Register and then create stations. That's it!.

Once you enter your artist or song It will quickly scan its entire world of analyzed music, almost a century of popular recordings - new and old, well known and completely obscure - to find songs with interesting musical similarities to your choice.  You will hear some of your old favorites and will also find some new favorites as you listen.  Now the cool thing is, you can teach your station more about your likes or dislikes. When a song is playing you can give it a thumbs up or a thumbs down which tells Pandora more about the type of music you like. Your station is then morphed even closer to your musical liking.  Note, you are limited to making 100 stations.

Pandora is result of the Music Genome Project started in 2000.  Each song in the Music Genome Project is analyzed using up to 400 distinct musical characteristics by a trained music analyst. These attributes capture not only the musical identity of a song, but also the many significant qualities that are relevant to understanding the musical preferences of listeners. The typical music analyst working on the Music Genome Project has a four-year degree in music theory, composition or performance, has passed through a selective screening process and has completed intensive training in the Music Genome's rigorous and precise methodology.

Pandora is not just trapped on your computer either. You can also listen to it via your Home Theater.  Pandora is now available on some blu-ray players by Samsung, Logitec's Duet, Sonos, Vudo, the IPhone, Blackberry and Windows Mobile devices. Just make sure you have an unlimited data plan for the last three devices.

Pandora allows you to share your stations with your friends, find listeners that share your interests and bookmark other listeners profiles.

Here is my favorite station: u2 Radio and my Pandora Profile . Feel free to book mark me if you like.

Pandora has also created little widgets to allow you to put your favorite songs, artist or channels on your blog.  RSS feeds are also available.

So try it out and let me know what you think. I think you will really enjoy it. My clients have loved it.  And best of all, It's FREE.
