Fortunately, we found a like-minded partner in Rhapsody, which allows you to save and listen to the music you already know you like as well as choose from more than 100 radio stations, ranging from acid jazz to afro-pop, bluegrass to bossa nova. Rhapsody requires a monthly subscription to reap all the goodies of the full Rhapsody service, but no worries—there’s plenty to enjoy for free: You can listen to more than 25 stations absolutely free for as long as you like, and if you have a particular song in mind, you can use one of your 25 “free plays” to listen to it on demand.

If you use myEarthLink Radio off of the previous version of my.earthlink.net, today you'll notice that application serves you a message from Pandora CEO Tim Westergren instead of the music you usually get.

December always used to be the month when I'd make a point of going to bookstores to buy the year-end Music magazines like Q and NME and The Face (R.I.P. The Face), for their "best music of the year" lists. The benefit of the year-end lists is that for most listeners and reviewers, it's not until your musical selections have had to compete with each other for your attention before you can really know what's good and what just seemed good when you first bought it. And annual hindsight is a good antidote to the inevitable layer of hype that surrounds new releases throughout the year.

Another excellent Lifehacker.com find. If you let it, earFeeder takes a look at the music on your computer and prepares a custom RSS feed for you with ticket announcements, pre-sales, news, and album releases. You can take that feed and add it to the RSS Reader of your choice. If that reader happened to be Reader.earthlink.net, I'd commend you on your discriminating taste in readers.

Just before I left for Anaheim, we launched the first phase of a new partnership with Pandora. In case you don't know what that is, it's a music player and music discovery system rolled in to one. The discovery part has some really interesting smarts behind it, employing a blend of human listening and computery algorithms to help you find music that's similar to the specific songs and artists you like. As far as free ways to listen to and discover new music via the web, Pandora is really the best game in town, and I'm excited that we've brought them to myEarthLink.

If you use an RSS reader, you can subscribe to a feed of all future entries tagged 'music'. [What is this?]
