How about another social radio market to join? I use Last.fm and Pandora quite often and love them, especially the recommendation features. Jango is the new kid on the block, and it is not looking to bad at all.

Jango has been in beta for the past few months, and has recently opened up full access to its services. I must say, Jango is incredibly easy to use. When you go to the site you get a search box and a list of “stations.” Pretty simple, eh? You can choose a station, which is a selection of artists, or you can type in an artist’s name, at which point you are taken to a user page, without even having to sign up. I signed up though.
By choosing an artist’s name you in effect create a “station” based around them, which can be made up solely of that artist, or artists that are similar. Jango suggests musicians and bands that it thinks you might like based on your choice, and then you get to choose from Jango’s list and add that artist to your station.
So if you have used Pandora before, you will feel right at home. The concept is basically the same. I can’t tell you how many songs I have discovered using Jango and Pandora. I love it.
The site doesn’t have some things that Last.fm and Pandora do. It does not have a widget, for example although the company said that’s coming. So will I continue to use Jango? Sure! The more the merrier. Be sure to check them out. It is free and you don’t even have to sign up to try them out.
