I borrowed my dad's radio for a long trip, he decided he didn't want it anymore, and then they forgot to stop paying for the service. It's fine for short trips, but even just the four hours from our house to Kim's parents it starts getting old in a hurry.

Pandora pays trained listeners to come in and enter characteristics of songs, e.g., gravelly vocals, boomy drums, etc. Then they pay attention to the characteristics of the songs you thumbs-up and thumbs-down and try to find ones that are matching your record for the current station. As far as I know, the thumbs-upHank Gayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13405417651021620361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3061577.post-56418955527646080122009-01-16T06:52:00.000-05:002009-01-16T06:52:00.000-05:00I still haven't checked out Pandora.

Matt's favorite channel is "Left of Center" although I think they may have renamed it after the merger.
