In Pandora, I give my favorite artist or song, Pandora explores their gallery and streams back the the similar style music. With Pandora, I have discovered some very good artists who I didnot know but play the music of my taste. Last.fm is also good at music discovery, but using a different approach. Last.fm looks more like a social network, you tag/search for the music then the system analyses the music you and you friends listen to or like. It is working very well, especially when I want to listen to some music I heard before or played by the artists I knew.

Pandora, I cannot even input Chinese which is quite strange; Last.fm has its Chinese version and collected a few Chinese artists but they are far from enough and accuracy. I searched for Zhoujielun (周杰伦) which might be the most popular pop music star, but the artists Last.fm discovered for me were: Tension, S.H.E, etc?! […]
