Songza and other online music players

lostwords

So there's a new site out called Songza that lets you search for music, play it, add it to a playlist, buy it and all that good stuff for free. I think it gets the music from youtube, so quality may be an issue, particularly for live shows and whatnot. Pretty handy. I've been using Pandora for the longest time, but it doesn't really let you choose a specific song or whatever, so this new one in addition to Pandora should be great for listening to music while at work.


So which online music thingiemabob you do you prefer? Any that offers an online playlist with recommendations that are decent? Any podcasts that you listen to on a regular basis? I could never get Lastfm to work at work. I'm sure there's a few out there that do that stuff but I've stuck with both of the above because they work for my work place.


Also, when are the people on here going to do do that radio station thingie again? (particularly knob). This isn't a demand, its just a gentle suggestion.

Umm, not sure if this should go in the music thread. Apologies in advance if I fucked up.

This,

The only problem I've had is when a playlist gets over one page (this is a lot of songs), you can't delete songs properly and it refuses to play songs on subsequent pages sequentially.

Also it doesn't have Killing by Korn, what the hell? It has all the other ones on the same album.

How is Deezer free? Their .pdf doesn't really explain the obvious question. It just says they 'came to an agreement'. I wish it would explain how, just like the south park page.
