I didn't see any threads on Grooveshark. Maybe all of you already use it, but just in case, check it out.

www.Grooveshark.com (http://listen.grooveshark.com/#/)

Due to the nature of my job, I usually can't bring in any storage devices (i.e. mp3 players) and I've been able to either find or upload pretty much everything I want and add it to my library.

As for you musician's, you can create artist accounts and add your music. They have Autoplay which is like Pandora's station where they recommend music based on what's already in your queue. You can pay for different amounts of guaranteed targeted "Autoplays". Anyway, I think it's a cool idea to put promotion in the artists' hands.

It is completely free to make an account, listen to stations, or search and listen to specific artists. Beats Pandora or Last.fm for sure. And ZERO adds.

It is also fun to just go to Grooveshark and type in a random work like "bird" and listen to whatever comes up. Good times...

Check it out music fans.

I think someone mention Grooveshark in the Spotify thread, but it seems good, won't be too long before they make people pay or have Ads

I think they do have ads but there's a Chrome extention to block them. Also, you can buy songs from there too.

I love GrooveShark. I found out they do have an iPod/Phone/Pad app but you have to jailbreak your iDevice to get it but I found one that will work in the Safari app called JamJockey.com. I had talked on Twitter about how it sucks about GrooveShark not having their app in iTunes (of course, for obvious reasons) and they sent me a tweet suggesting to use them and it's pretty good.

Good info there.

I rarely actually use the provided radio stations and so I never have any ads interruption the music I play. I usually just think of a band I want to here, search there name, and listen to the desired album.
