type in an artist or song you like, it gives you a bunch of songs that sound like that artist or song. they have a pretty surprisingly good amount of stuff, too...nothing really kvlt but a good assortment from all genres and certainly far more metal than i expected.

i remember that one website with the Circles of Influence or whatever it was called, pretty similar to this but with a much niftier interface.

edit: that is, i remember it, but not the URL or actual name or something helpful.

I've tried it out, some of the similar artist results are even more head-scratching than AMG's connections, but I have heard some good stuff on there (particularly some Can from the albums I wasn't familiar with already), and it plays full-length songs...

For the most part pandora fucking sucks.
