Today we went to the computer lab and checked out pandora and last fm. I knew about pandora for a long time since it first came out so it was nothing new. Last fm i didn't know existed. So we went on pandora and I had my stations already and I was listening to them and stuff already. I like pandora so I was justall up on it when we started. Later the teacher told us to go to last fm. I get to the website and it's way different. I type in an artist I want to listen to and I the page comes up. The thing about this website is that it only plays individual songs. I put on a song from the cool kids and it plays each song individually. I don't like that really. I like pandora's player better. What I like about pandora is that it plays the artist you wanna listen to and other artist that sound similar. It kind of shuffles the music which I like. I don't just like listening to the same artist I like when they mix it up throwing other bands and newer and older songs for the artist you want to listen and other bands as well. I like last fm only because you get to pick the songs individually that you want to listen to. That I think is the coolest thing about the site. Sometimes I wish I could listen to a specific song on pandora but is shuffles and sometimes it plays the song. Last fm is really only good when you want to listen to single songs and watch videos from the artist. If you want more of a variety then pandora is the best choice. Alot of people I know have heard of pandora and like it alot. It also has a free application for phones so you can use it anywhere. Pandora radio is growing everyday and reaching a bigger audience. It's pretty much a fan favorite. Last fm I barely heard of the other day and I don't know how well they will do but all they can do is try. They won't be better thatn pandora because it's big and getting better.
