Music for us Slackers

I've found my new favorite radio station to listen to. It's actually many radio stations depending on what my mood is. It's Slacker.com. In one word this site is AWESOME! They just have great radio station selections and are always playing the best music that I want to hear. Occasionly I'll hear something I don't like and I can click a button to NEVER hear it again. Genius! I've played around with some other sites like LaunchCast and Rhapsody. They are both good but, it's seems like it takes forever before they "learn" what music I want to hear. That's good for some people but, us slackers just want good music now. Best of all the site is free!

There are a few limitation such as you can only skip 6 songs an hour but, I seldom have an issue with that. The artist lineup is pretty broad with the obvious exceptions (beatles, etc..). I'm listening to the Alternative Hits Radio (Red Hot Chili Peppers, White Stripes, Panic at the Disco) as I write this so as to not fall asleep. Rock on.

They are also working on a to-go device that looks promising but, a bit pricey. So if you need some tunes, don't have alot of cash, and don't have time to build a "collection" checkout Slacker Personal Radio...
