Default [OT] Finally, a good music website

I've finally found it, gang. A music playback website that doesn't suck.

You do a search and put in the song you are looking for by artist, album
name, title, etc, and it coughs it up and plays it. Not some lame youtube
live video taken by a some geek in Amsterdam or Tokyo on a 10 yr old vid cam
with crappy mono mike, but the real actual album cut you haven't heard for
32 yrs, that time when you where half looped off that bong full of Panama
red. No re-mastered, heavy on the bass, hip-hop remix with all the
background vocals erased and the drums overpowering everything. No, it's
the actual original you heard on your AR turntable through your Fisher 400
tube amp and Altec-Lansing speakers where the balances were Perfect! No bullshit
advertisments or left field promo songs by Homo and the Sapiens out of
Eyebrow MN, just the real deal, the original as you remember it. No 10 song
limit of THAT group, now you gotta listen to Bill Banana and the Bunch, The
Band With A Peel! What is this miraculous find?:

Amazing. It'll even play the whole album. I've found songs available,
seemingly, nowhere else. Album cuts so obscure it would be pointless to
name them. Old Brit raggae, Canadian folk songs, out of print albums, songs
even google can't find in any form, etc. If there is a catch (other than a
TOU agreement and registration/email), I haven't found it. I'm in Heaven.

enjoy =D

Not sure yet. I have Pinetop Perking playing right now and already had
Piano Red and Lead Belly. . And I'm not even registered.

Then I searched for George Enescu and nothing was returned. I guess you
cannot search by composer very well.

I'm pleased with a free wireless radio connection (Slacker) on my iPhone
when I don't feel like listening to my music collection.

Pandora.com for me. I listened so much that I started bumping up
against the 40 free hours a month limit, and joined Pandora for $36/
year, for which I get unlimited uninterrupted listening with NO
commercials, and this very cool little app called Pandora One (not a
browser thing!) which lets me play my Pandora "stations' without using
my web browser app.

File sharing? its the new version of 'fair use' with my mac as a toy i
have been down loading from http://www.beemp3.com for some time now.

WHen ever i mention it to a friend with a PC they freak out and start
warning me about all the virus's and stuff but i have never had a problem.

I could not get your link to load but i will try it with another browser
later.

And here's a link that while it may duplicate any particular song your
site might have its such a good archive of a particular genera of music
i have to mention it.

http://thehound.net/songsbytitle.html

You can search the archive by title or artist.

yep, nothing says 'music connoisseur' better than listening to the classics
on your i-phone.
