Pandora is a streaming flash based online music project. Basically you just create a "channel" by telling Pandora a band you like. Based on that band Pandora will then start playing music that you may like. If you like the song you can give it the thumbs up and if you don't like it you can give it the thumbs down. From these thumbs up's and down's Pandora can further narrow down what music may appeal to you. Pandora's music collection is extremely extensive and the music suggestion software is very intuitive and complex. Here's an example of how Pandora chooses what music to play. "Based on what you've told us so far we're playing this song because it features midwest rap roots, basic rap roots, a repetitive song structure...". Pandora does eventually require registration but is otherwise totally free.
