The Song Decoders at Pandora // NYTimes.com
october 2009 by fabianmohr
"Pandora’s approach more or less ignores the crowd. It is indifferent to the possibility that any given piece of music in its system might become a hit. The idea is to figure out what you like, not what a market might like. More interesting, the idea is that the taste of your cool friends, your peers, the traditional music critics, big-label talent scouts and the latest influential music blog are all equally irrelevant. That’s all cultural information, not musical information."

"The Dead -- including four remaining members of the Grateful Dead -- returns to the stage this year, starting its 2009 tour on April 12 in Greensboro, N.C. Since the Grateful Dead formed in 1965, it has inspired an obsessive following, and fans continue to debate which of the original band's 2,350 or so shows was the best. These concerts are considered to be among the top contenders. Tell us which one you think is greatest, and why."

Memo To UK: No Pandora For You // TechCrunch

"The stupidity of the RIAA continues to have little bounds, particularly when a decision like this forces a US company to stop streaming outside of the US, yet American owned companies based in the UK (like Last.fm) are free to stream music anywhere."
