I have yet to have any luck with Pandora, but I did get the 
opportunity to grouse about that to someone who actually works with 
them a couple of weeks ago when we were out in western MA visiting 
some old MIT friends of my wife.  My first complaint was that it took 
something like my eighth try for Pandora to recognize an artist I 
typed in.  The second was that when it finally recognized an artist 
(the Dresden Dolls), it kept insisting that if I liked the Dresden 
Dolls, I would just LOVE Tori Amos.  Um, I get that they're both 
redheads playing piano, but...no.  Keep trying.

Pandora has the potential to someday be very good, but it still 
strikes me as being very much in the early stages of a work in 
progress.
