  • Hey Alan, I’ve been giving it a whirl for the last few days and so far, so good. Would be interested to hear how you think it compares to some of the other streaming services out there.

    • It’s similar to Rdio in many respects. If you have the time and inclination to create your own playlists and collections, it’s a very good “lean forward” experience. But if you just want someone to pick the tunes for you (and surprise you from time to time), Songza is the best of the “lean back” services.

  • I like it so far. Reminds me of Slacker Radio
