The nice thing about pandora is that they've recently added "serious" music. Check out my article on Pandora (from a technical pov): http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/a/oreilly/digitalmedia/2006/08/17/inside-pandora-web-radio.html or http://tinyurl.com/ywp6kf "The magic of Pandora derives from a simple principle: a song listeners enjoy should lead to other songs they'll enjoy. Pandora is an Internet music service with an unusual twist: you merely select a song or artist you like and the system builds a playlist of additional songs based on those musical characteristics." So, you can have a "George Crumb" channel and you'll likely hear Messiaen or Roger Sessions as well as Crumb. Or a "Penderecki" channel you could hear Varese. The limit, of course, is their database of selections, which isn't very good. (then again, you could also have a Tower of Power channel, a Bill Evans channel, Blind Faith and Randy Travis as well.) Check out David Lang, he just won the Pulitzer. Unfortunately, you probably won't hear him on Pandora.
