#37 Radio Stations online

Of the two options listed here, one (Pandora) was not available outside of the USA (due to licensing restrictions)- which left LastFM to explore. LastFM was very interesting. Once you have joined up, you can list some of your favourite artists and LastFM will then recommend other artists similar to those you have listed. You can leave a comment about tracks you like (or "shout" about it as LastFM calls it), and see what other people have thought about them.

There are biographies of the different artists and you can see where they are appearing if they are on tour. As well as free access you can also subscribe to LastFM which allows you to great playlists and other more advanced options.

As well as finding some of my favourite artists, I picked up a few different ones, particularly in the Celtic area. At times I found the tracks were a bit stop and start as they were playing, but it wasn't too bad. Below is a selection of the music I was listening to.
