Default Need Music? Alternatives To LastFM!

We are not wanting everyone to give up on Lastfm completely. Things could change in the coming month.

However, if you need a music fix now, you can check out these hot alternatives:

Jango: Build several of your own custom radios at Jango and meet and shout with new friends. No BBcode, no html. Supported by advertising and artists pay to upload. Mostly Mainstream, but many independents as well. The radios are very sleek and intelligent radio recos 7.5/10

ReverbNation: Full Track Sample Everything! Unsigned, mainstream, obscure artists. Build queues and listen in exact order you put them! Artists may upload their material here completely for free and fans can listen for free! Fan the artists, love tracks, graphs and charts, join mailing lists for your favorite artists, or join their street teams! 8/10

Pandora: Pretty much the same as Jango. Mainstream only. Though not very socialable. 7/10

TrueAnthem: Not very large, but a great place to spend a few days, finding quality new artists. Artists can belong for free after administrative screening and once fans register, they can download all the music for free! Artists are supported at TrueAnthem, by sponsorships through advertisers, that are matched with their musical genre and style. 'Shaolin Temple Of BooM' are sponsored by Wonka Candies! Small site, but nice concept, so.... 7.5/10

Jamendo: Free and legal music downloads. 20,000 albums you can stream for free! Artists can belong for free! Jamendo is worldwide and available in many countries. Haven't found anything signed major or mainstream at Jamendo. Build profiles and use some coding(links). make friends and share music(the way LastFM used to) 8/10

MIXposure.com: is a Free Music Promotion & MP3 Downloads - Online Interactive Music Community! MIXposure has it's own DJ's and radio programming too and if the DJ's like the music, they can easily put it in rotation for airplay! This site is very popular for musicans, lyricists and producers, who wish to collaborate. Still one of my favorite places for networking in the music industry 8/10

http://www2.mixposure.com/The_Cryb_-...ToBWoolgather: You can sample three of our artists at MIXposure

FIXT: An on-line muic label, designed for the independent music artists of the world. Weekly music deals, exclusives and single track or entire album purchases, are available at the FIXT Store. Also, near a dozen free downloads available here: Available FREE downloads Cryb Rated: 6.5/10

This would be great if it weren't for the fact that anything you want you can find on youtube.....

that might be true but you still get country restrictions, additional gazillion megabytes of unnecessary video bandwidth, absolutely no audio player interface, proper artist/album search, related radio stations and a lot lot more ...

on youtube i can search a song or two and then play it but listening to music on it would be a stupid pain in the ass
