What Internet stations do people listen to? I'm partial to Radio Paradise. I heard FB's "Two Spaces" on there the other day. That was a nice surprise. But I'm pretty agreeable to everything they play. And I like that there's a feedback section online for every song, and that they keep track of every time a specific song has ever been played.
 Please pardon me, for these my wrongs. |

CBC Radio 3 Podcast, which isn't quite an internet radio station, although it is a radio show in podcast form I suppose...

Has www.pandora.com been discussed before?
Someone just turned me on to it, and it's fantastic. You just type in a band name and it creates a custom "radio" playlist that so far has spit out nothing that I don't like. Found 4 new bands to listen to just in the first half hour!
Check it out.

Last.fm has more internet radio options than you can shake a stick at.
Operates similar to pandora, I guess. Plays artists based on member's listening habits.

| I've been doing Pandora for awhile. I have Frank Black, Devo, Spoon, and Andrew Bird channels that are constantly evolving. |

I ran a similar tester about a year ago and it gave me "I Burn Today."

| Pandora doesn't seem to have much Frank. I think I've only heard songs from FMRM and the orange album (in addition to Pixies). |

I'd like to add a vote for Last.fm - not just artist stations, but genre and tag stations as well. There's a much larger degree of customisation as far as I can tell wrt Pandora. Plus Last.fm has the whole neighbour thing.
No, I don't know that atheists should be considered as citizens, nor should they be considered patriots. This is one nation under God George Bush snr |

I got "Western Star" on Pixies radio! I was pretty psyched to hear it, as usual. So there's some more Frank in there for sure.
My "Adam Ant" radio didn't turn out so well. Not that I expected it to, but I didn't really discover Sparks or The Go Betweens until recently, so I thought maybe there some others I missed out on. I'm gonna keep trying new stuff - it's definitely fun background listening for work.

I don't listen to Internet radio, but my Dad is partial to listening to this online:
BBC Radio 2 - Terry Wogan.
That's not necessarily a recommendation, or anything. ;) |

Just chanced upon this topic, and I'll throw another vote for last.fm. I can't say enough about this site and its services. The only problem is it has expanded my musical wishlist to an unaffordable behemoth.
Nothing is ever something. |

Pandora doesn't work for some countries anymore...like the Netherlands.
I was a devoted user, with 4 own stations were I discovered some neat music.
A good alternative? Last.fm?

Phantom FM is a good Irish indie-centric station, hadn't listened to it in ages, but a friend has it on a lot lately:
Phantom 105.2 FM.
....Just played Cannonball a few songs back. |

Never really got into the habit of internet radio but I keep coming back to kcrw.com for it's huge archive of live sessions, audio and video.
