I've been using Pandora lately when I have the hi-speed access. For the most part I like it and I've been turned on to several modern pop bands I'd never heard before.

Pandora does tend to play some of my "I like this song" selections every time I log in so I have to pick the "Don't play this song for a month" option.

The stations also can seem to get sidetracked. To a station I started with BR549, Wayne Hancock, and Dwight Yoakam I added Hank Snow, Bob Wills, and Ernest Tubb and now the station is playing nothing but pre-65 country instead of mixing it up.

And, as I just found out, Pandora's not so good with the modern rockabilly.

But for free it's great. Sounds good and with the modern music does a nice job matching the music I like.
