This is perhaps one of the greatest things ever! http://www.pandora.com go to that website and follow along. Make an account and don't worry about any of the information they ask for. If however you don't want to use your own zip code, or, like me, you live outside the US, just use this one: 94043. Nobody will mnd if you use this, because it's the zip code for the google campus in california. It's a music genome project, and with a small amount of input you give the system, it customizes a playlist to your likings. It is absolutely fantastic and free. You can't download the music, but you do have the option to buy the album from amazon, or download from iTunes. I extremely highly recomend that you guys heck this out, you will not regret it one bit, but instead may give me praises that a god would normally receive.

I know the search is broken but DUDE.

stevethepirate:
Khar, you don't love me? I think I'll go slowly weep in a corner. But I promise you there won't be tears.

KharBevNor:
Dude, you're a pirate, so, I could never hate you, but there's been two threads about this already.

nescience:
A guy I know is working for this project.  I haven't used it in the past couple months, but the major complaint I have (which is similar to the genre complaint I have against the metadata company I work for, Gracenote) is that genres are compiled at the artist level.  This breaks down really easily for artists like Brian Eno, in that seeds based on a song like "Needles in the Camel's Eye" (a rather glam rock piece) are different from seeds for "St. Elmo's Fire" (an early electronic pop song) or "Evening Star" (a minimal electronic track).  Otherwise, it uses a great methodology and often works really well!  I hope they make money so they can populate their database!
