stonebenderI'm wondering if anyone has any particular strategies with how they use Pandora.com? Since it allows 100 stations I tend to have a station for each singer or group that I like. I think I'm interested in limiting the variables Pandora can uses to select new music for me. I hardly ever nix a song unless I really really hate it. I also don't tend to tell Pandora I like a particular song. If I like a song I add it to my favorites list. I'm not sure if Pandora uses that to help it decide what else to play.
I'm a little dismayed at how often the same musical qualities show up in the music I like. I think of myself is being fairly eclectic in my musical preferences. Seems like, although I listen to many types of music. What I like about music is pretty consistent. I like "strong vocals, mixed acoustic and electric instrumentation, mild rythmic syncopation, and major key tonalty."
