The best of free on-line music

This is a site I came across last night, and I love it, and have signed up to it. It's like a hybrid of Napster type sites and radio, playing continuous music to suit your tastes.
Pip has asked me if I know of anymore of these sites, but I'm afraid don't, so any suggestions please......
(And thanks Last FM, I think it's brilliant) :j:j:T:T:T

P.s, don't be put off with Leonard Cohen bit, (though I love him!), you can just type an artist you like, and you will have an automated playlist of similar artists playing for you

Thanks for posting this - I've been hooked since putting it on this morning.

Had it on all day instead of my normal radio.

Started up to bed tonight at about 12.00 - thought I would have last quick look on board with last blast of 'last fm' .... now after 2.00 pm and I am still up doing both yikes :eek:

Great site and music!!!

... other links (any style of music) appreciated!!!!!!!!

If you like dance/trance/house and any other kind of electronica then you may like:

Just go to the tab 'listen now' and scroll down the list and move accross to 'mp3 streams' on the genre you like. I particularly enjoy the vocal trance section.

Gone to browse music and am listening to

I really like the way our input influences what we can listen to.

By the way, they have jobs, shame I'm not qualified.

I found this site this week:

www.jango.com

It sounds similar to the one you have found. You just type in a favourite artist or artists and then it makes your own radio station of similar music. I love it!
You can also embed it in Facebook, etc.:T

Rabbitx · 10 December 2008 at 2:39PM

I'll give it go, thanks. Last.fm lets you embed as well.

Thanks Fenella & Rob - will try links when at home (can just about get away with sneaking looks on here at work but music as well .......... )
