Keeping Hip to New Tunes

Here's the situation. I am an Ipod Addict. I have a huge music collection I love listening to. It's big and diverse enough so that I don't really get tired of the songs in my collection. The problem is I have trouble finding out about new bands and different artists outside of what I already know. Occasionally a friend will turn my onto something new but not nearly as much as when I was young and everyone was listening to new stuff. The challenge is to keep up on new and different stuff out there. The solution........Pandora by the Music Genome Project. Its is simple is entering in a favorite band or song and then they come up with similar music. I tested it out with some pretty obscure unusual bands I like and was really impressed with the results that were additionally returned. Definitely going to add Pandora to the sites I go to regularly.
