    I found this site the other day, some of you probably already know about it but whatever.

    Its called Pandora Radio. You type in an artist or a song that you like and it creates a station based upon similar artists and songs.

    I think it's an awesome idea and its got some good music.

    Check it out!!!!

    Dear Pandora Visitor,

    We are deeply, deeply sorry to say that due to licensing constraints, we can no longer allow access to Pandora for listeners located outside of the U.S.

    Try download.com and then look for an IP protector. Not sure if it will work, but its worth a try.

    Edit: If this isn't allowed can a mod delete it please/

    Yes, Pandora has to be one of my absolute favorite sites on the internet.

    Really, you customize a station enough, it'll be rare when it plays a song you don't like.

    I'd never heard of Gogol Bordello before. Wanderlust Kings is a great song.

    What a moustache! o_O

    edit: Gogol Bordello lead to the film, 'Everything is Illuminated'. The credits are rolling now. It's not my typical kind of film, but I enjoyed it a lot. The Ukraine is a pretty fucked up place. :)

    THO, you are like the best human being ever. I definitely needed something exactly like this, and I've discovered more good trance in the past six songs than I have in six months.

    In conclusion: U R RLY AWSUM!

    I used to use that site once a week or so to find new music until the new licencing thing came up. As an Aussie, I could no longer have access. It sucks, 'cause it is a good site.

    Yahoo does a similar thing, but with mainly mainstream bands.

    Amazing find. I've been on it the entire night. My only problem is when I'm looking for something specific like grunge rock and I put in Soundgarden or Nirvana, but soon enough I'm getting Led Zeppelin, Fuel, Guns N' Roses, and all sorts of other bands.

    It's when I say I like a certain song and they record the fact that I like aesthetics or electric guitar and then all my music will begin to revolve around those two characteristics, not the grunge I was looking for in the first place.

    Anyone else have that problem?
