Discover New Music
Pandora is a web-based service that helps you discover new music. The web app is a Flash RIA that asks you to type in an artist whose music you like, then based on an alogrithm created by the Music Genome Project it chooses artists whose style is close to that of the one you entered. It’s really quite remarkable and worth checking out.
The service is available by subscription (only $36 per year) or alternately by a free, ad supported player.



FYI - Pandora was done using OpenLaszlo. There’s a little more about here from the development team:

I’ve been using it since it launched and have to say it’s definately one of my favourite (and yet deceptively simple) web apps/services.
