...then check out these sites out (They are in order of my satisfaction with them, the highest is my favorite).
Pandora [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] Availible To: Residents in the U,S, only, due to some music royalty fees. This is an epic online radio that introduced me to a lot of bands. You enter the name of a song or artist, and the program finds songs that are like it. This may sound ridiculous, but it actually works. The program uses analyzed features of songs and matches them of with other features. You can skip songs, but only six per hour (for each station). I've been introduced to so much music with it (If you look at my topic of unknown bands, most of the bands on that giant list I posted were introduced to be by Pandora.
Last.Fm [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] Availible To: Everyone Last.Fm is like Pandora in the way that it has a radio that plays music similar to other artists. Instead of Pandora, it matches songs together by tags that users put it. You enter an artist or tag, and it plays songs with similar tags. It's very reliable, and it introduced me to quite a few great bands. Also, unlike Pandora, you can play the songs on demand, and you have unlimited skips.
Musicovery [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] Availible To" Everyone Musicovery is not similar to the other two sites I posted. You give your genre of choice and your mood, and it plays music pertaining to the two factors you gave it. It hasn't helped me much, but if you don't like the other two programs, you should try this.

Yeah, Pandora is helped me a lot with music. Now, two more sites.
StumbleAudio [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] This band only has indie bands (Which are mostly unknown). You can look up popular artists as well as browse by genre.
Meemix [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] This is a radio similar to Pandora, but with unlimited skips. Also is more like a social newtork site.

As you may have noticed, the site has been pretty slow lately...but I know everyone's been doing a little bit of lurking, so by now I'm sure you've seen each of the different chats.
