I just wasn't sure what people consider ambient music. I don't care for techno or groove stuff so much.

Have you listened to the bands I listed?

In my opinion the best ambient album is YMO Technodom Remixes II.

Check out Godspeed if you haven't already also.

I'll check out some of the bands you listed.

Thanks

I own or have heard 5 of the 8 you listed, but I wouldn't classify any of these as "ambient" (at least the ones I've heard). You might check out this Eno thread for some ambient suggestions:

There's an excellent record store here in SF that has a very informative site with lots of samples to listen to (the the folks working there have great knowledge of all kinds of ambient/trip/chill/drone/slowcore/exotica music):
