I just wanted to bring up a site that I found out about just the other day and has been open in my browser the entire time since.
http://www.pandora.com
You can learn about it on the site but I will briefly discribe what it does here. First, it is a flash program and when you open it you type in the name of a musical artist or song that appeals to you, and it, using a huge music database, searches for songs that are similar to the one that you entered. It procedes to create a 'station' of song after song that is similar to the ones that you like.
You can either register for free, which they say will be adverstising supported in the future, but as of yet they are no ads, or you can buy a monthy or yearly subscription that will always be advertising free.
It's obvious that they wont be able to include every band and song that has ever been created, but they claim to have songs from thousands of artists, so you should be able to find something you like, I know I have.
