Pandora's Squeezebox Delivers Audio Ambiance
Pandora's Squeezebox Delivers Audio Ambiance
Thanks to the folks working diligently at the Music Genome Project, we can now create our own commercial-free music stations, and tailor them fit our tastes or mood. Simply download Pandora's streaming music player, specify a few of your favourite artists, and Pandora will classify your tastes and propose new music that is similar. You can continually provide feedback to Pandora's algorithms by letting it know that you hate/love a song it has selected, or not to play a particular song. For a fee, you can also purchase a Squeezebox to play the streaming audio directly on your stereo. This is the ideal tool for creating ambience for a party or somthing more intimate... Dare you open Pandora's Box?
