I've been led in some good directions by Pandora, but it takes constant "tuning" and it's very 
annoying that they limit how many bad selections you can "thumbs down" per hour. And the commercials 
are really annoying. Still, though, I do try to listen a few hours each week in hopes of more good 
tips. Where's helped me is with more recent-vintage acid-jazz, because the releases are usually DIY 
or otherwise under the radar. Also finding interesting UK-based soul-revival stuff (although, like 
all cover bands, most of those guys get old due to lack of original thinking). This list has been 
very helpful introducing me to new music a couple of times. What has never been helpful are sites 
like Pitchfork, I have yet to find anything there that is of my taste that I didn't already know 
about.
