I like to use pandora in the background since music selection algo seems pretty good...

trying to find a service with higher quality audio though....

any suggestions, do you prefer one over the other?

I use pandora but find it's not very good at variety within a station, it will play a block of one genre then a block of another. Signed up for spotify but haven't set that one up yet, so I"m interested to hear if its a lot better.

I like grooveshark. You can actually choose which songs you listen to, and you don't need to sign up

i have spotify but rarely use it. pandora is pretty much the only music i ever listen to that isn't satellite.

Pandora just released HTML5 layout and no listening cap.

I only use Pandora, I even pay $36 a year for the "one" option (no ads, unlimited, desktop app) I do find that variety within one station can be limited, so I'm constantly editing my "quickmix" to shuffle through many of my stations. I end up listening to it pretty much all day while working from home, but rarely in my car (which I'm rarely in for more than 15 minutes)

But lately, when I'm running the desktop app, and I hear a song I want to get more info on, if I click on the artist or song title, it opens a web page (which it always has) but it now opens a page which includes the web version of the streaming music and it starts playing another song through the browser while I'm still listening to the desktop app. I believe some of you kids would call that "retarded."

Anyone else experiencing this? I can't seem to easily find a pandora forum, certainly nothing on their site. I have seen that support for their desktop app is pretty lame, perhaps this is their way of telling me not to use it anymore? I like it mainly because it minimizes to the tray = one less window/tab to manage...

slacker+ for me and my andriod. not sure why spotify makes you pay 10bux for cell streaming.

I only listen to music on my desktop so I have spotify. Waiting until the 6mo no listening cap runs out before I decide whether or not to go unltd or premium.

if you only use your computer just use youtube and create playlists or shoutcast streams and save yourself a few bux

I've been pretty happy with spotify since I usually have a long list of albums/artists I've been wanting to listen to.

Sound quality on spotify seems better than if I used youtube. Haven't heard of shoutcast though

+1. plus its got a radio feature to play music but I think you can only select genres rather than artists, etc
