Pandora

Since I love music and have very eclectic tastes, this is really appealing to me. I like the fact that you can suggest an artist you like and it cross references other artists that are similar - so it would be possible to discover something I hadn’t heard before (and would most likely never hear on a Clear Channel station). Being able to link to information about the artist when the song comes on is also a nice feature - a great advantage over conventional radio.
What I found myself wishing for was more full access. I was able to get a sample of some things but not full access. Pandora also limits you if you try to skip through too many tracks in a given hour. I think licensing and making sure copyright holders get compensated will continue to be a struggle in fully realizing the potential of sites like this.
