A compromise

I have long been a hater of 'radio'. This is coming from someone who loves music and every chance I get will listen to it. I never listen tothe radio in the car, hate it when people have it on in the car, and really don't know any stations that I like. I have long waged a war against the radio, boycotting it from my life whenever I have a chance for about 3 years now. I would rather go silent in the car before turning on the radio anymore. Well something has happened recently, I have found something close enough to radio that I might have been turned back to it. Launchcast on yahoo! has pulled me in. I dont know if its that I get to rate music, artist and album or that they actually play what I list highly but it is the best thing in radio I have come across yet. You need to get an account to have your own station but its worth it, even if a 30 second commercial is played every 5 songs or so. If I don't like the song I even get to skip foward (after I rank it low). No, im not employed by these people and no I dont give recommendations out easily. Check it out if you also hate radio but need some music on your computer that varies. Some problems do exist...as my cousin mike put it "Stupid thing doesnt support OS X!!!" I also can't seem to run it from Mozilla Firefox and lastly it does sometimes play music that I have no clue why, but I can skip over it. If anyone figures out the Firefox issue let me know.
