It's the new Internet radio. They basically scour the web for available mp3s, then stream then to you. The service is still in Beta and is pretty raw but the concept is amazing.

It's a really innovative concept, but also it might get them into some trouble since they're aggregating mp3s all over the web without clear permission.

Okay.. It looks nice, and it is a funny idea for a free web radio station. But I have two problems with it right away, it needs to much interaction with me and it is to random what music I get to listen to ...

@Baher: yes, i do think they're going to run into problems, especially when (or if) they grow. they'll be leeching bandwidth from the source's server without giving anything back to the source. i foresee people disallowing discovery of mp3s in their Robots.txt files (is this possible)?
@Nicki: yes too, on that point. you have to be continually pressing the 'add to playlist' button, which is really incovenient. i think you can do searches by artist but then listening to just one artist gets boring too eh?
still, i say the concept is amazing. now we just need someone to come along and find a better way to execute it.
