I hate commercial radio. The only thing I listen to in the car is NPR.
But I like music. So I've been listening to RadioParadise for quite a while and I really like the mix of tunes there.
Now I just heard about Pandora which is a music services that builds a radio station based on your tastes. Very cool idea and it seems like a very cool implementation. And it's free.
Oh, the Perl connection? It appears you can listen to this service through the SlimDevices products, and the code that runs that device (and all the plug-ins) is written in Perl! Cool.
