    Well I stumbled upon this site a few hours ago and I figured I'd share it with everyone. It's quite nifty.
    It's a radio station. Except you can create your own playlists, however you can not download songs, they do have links to purchase them through iTunes and Amazon. I really like it though, took me a while to figure out how to surf the options and et cetera but after that it got fun and I found a lot of new songs I can listen to.
    What you do is, type in the name of a song or an artists and it matches it up with similar songs to help you find new listening pleasures. For example, I searched "Family Business" (Kanye West) as a result they gave me "Get Fly" by Atmosphere. "Based on what you've told us so far, we're playing this track because it features gospel influences, a knack of catchy hooks, vocal samples, clean lyrics, and a bumpin' kick sound."
    To be honest with you, I really like the song to, I literally just did the search as an example and I find the song apealing and will definently search the artist up on there.
    While the song is playing you can hit "Guide Us" and select wether or not you like the song, or click "I'm tierd of this song" incase it's been showing up a lot. Also you can click, "Why is this song playing?" and it will give the the "Based on [...]" discription.
    It's 100% free, they just ask you to register after you've listened to it for a while. I'm actually making my account right now.
    It also saves your playlist choices incase you want to revisit.
