Online Radio

Do you guys listen to online radio? If so, which ones?

I'm looking for a few good online radio stations to listen to, I've hit a rather large rut in discovering new music to listen to.

Pandora is good. It's were you pick a genre and you thumb up or thumb down music they play, which gives them an idea of the style of music you prefer. So they can play music that they think you would like

I have a last.fm but I don't use the radio function very often. That or Pandora are probably your best bets, even though I haven't used the latter in awhile.

I dont listen to a certain radio station, but I use GrooveShark for listening to music online.

I don't listen to online radio much at all, but when I do it's usually always Pandora. And that's from my iPhone. Last.fm too sometimes from my Xbox 360.

It's a pity that Pandora blocks every IP not from the US.

I found out a cool station called Epic Rock Radio, they have a large library of progressive, power metal and symphonic metal - and the songs almost always have clean vocals rather than growls or screaming. Which is nice. Their playlist is also by request, so you can even get the songs that you want played, as long as they're in the library.

I also have begun to use Pandora lately and it works well for me...in the U.S., of course. Anyways, the only other one I've heard about is Slacker. Haven't used it myself, but it is similar to Pandora.

Can't you just use a proxy? :oops:

I listen to http://www.di.fm/ because I'm really into electronic music. It's great because they have so many stations with all the genres, so you can always get the genre that you're listening too, and they have great playlists and sets selection. If you're looking for more 'normal' music, a set of stations is available on their sister website http://www.sky.fm/.

Only downside is that the quality is mediocre (64-96k). It's very reasonable, but it's not crystal clear. If you get into it enough you can pay a small monthly fee for 256k versions of all their stations.

Pandora
It's good if you want to discover new artists aswell as listen to the artist you want to.

Last.fm
It's good to look up indidual songs. It's also good if you want to look at similar artists.
