		<description>Pandora can get to be a bit repetitious.  Their playlists can be a bit short for certain artists, therefore songs are repeated.  But hey, I&#039;m not going to complain...it&#039;s free.</description>

		<description>Pandora doesn&#039;t really do it for me. It&#039;s a recommendation engine, not a custom radio station. If you &quot;seed&quot; a station with a song or artist, your lucky to hear that song/artitst maybe every 6-10 plays, the rest is based on algorithmic selection based on auto-detected qualities of the seed tracks. The result is a lot of bad music, essentially, the b, c and d list for the genre or music type. The most frustrating aspect of a pandora &quot;radio station&quot; is that all the music is the same tempo! It becomes exasperating after awhile. I don&#039;t have a lot of experience with last.fm, but i&#039;ve been playing with slacker, which allows you to create custom radio stations based on the artists and tracks you select. You actually hear those artists and songs, and you can control the amount of auto-discovery, based popular vs fringe cuts, or related artists. It&#039;s not prefect, believe me, but it&#039;s closer to the kind of experience i&#039;m looking for with internet radio.</description>

		<description>I was a big UK Pandora fan until the RIAA (or whatever they are called) stopped us listening :( 

In terms of listenership, these are all very small numbers considering the size of the potential audience... It has to be bigger in digital to be commercially viable. 

It&#039;s a shame, I&#039;d like to see recommendation-internet radio hit the mainstream and become a whole new industry. Until these guy&#039;s get scale, they&#039;re just not going to have the power to negotiate decent deals with the copyright holders. 

Internet Radio, like podcasts, needs to be a default tab in music players (WMP, iTunes...) fully integrated, catalogued, peer-rated music... so you just choose and hit &#039;play&#039;.  Just like the old-fashioned radio, turn it on and listen.</description>

<p>It&#8217;s a shame, I&#8217;d like to see recommendation-internet radio hit the mainstream and become a whole new industry. Until these guy&#8217;s get scale, they&#8217;re just not going to have the power to negotiate decent deals with the copyright holders. </p>
<p>Internet Radio, like podcasts, needs to be a default tab in music players (WMP, iTunes&#8230;) fully integrated, catalogued, peer-rated music&#8230; so you just choose and hit &#8216;play&#8217;.  Just like the old-fashioned radio, turn it on and listen.</p>
