Grooveshark

From seoTunes:

“I’ve just stumbled across Grooveshark for the first time, and I have to say, I’m impressed! It has an ever-growing user base feeding more and more music into it, which you can pay to download or stream for free, legally. I’ve found it easy to get some great music out of it, and just finished listening throughout all of The Cure - Faith, Marvin Gaye - What’s Going On and Joy Division - Unknown Pleasures without any problems. The biggest issue I’ve had with it so far is that, thanks to badly labelled files being shared, there’s often multiple entries for the same song under the same album. This is easily overcome though - line up each song (I use Wikipedia to get the right tracklisting) and save the album as a playlist on your account and you’ve got a permanent, ordered album to be played whenever.”

From Matt Halliday:

“There are lots of online music services out there - Last.fm, iTunes Radio and Yahoo Music just to name a few. While most of these are great services, there are some that require a monthly subscription and others even block access to countries outside the US.

I recently came across a free online music service called Grooveshark. Users can listen to full songs free, discover new music and get free downloads by sharing their own music library. There is also a whole social networking part of Grooveshark that ties all these features together.”

From ButterBlog:

“GrooveShark is a website where people can add, share, and listen to free music. Even better people can get paid for doing these things, all while making the service better for future visitors.

Even better GrooveShark has recently released a “lite” version of their application. Now anyone can listen to the millions of songs on GrooveShark without even registering.”

“First came tinyurl, the site that allows you to shorten URLs for easier sharing, and now you’d better make room for tinysong, the site that converts songs to URLs for easier listening. Simply go to tinysong.com, type in the name of the song you are looking for and tinyurl will return multiple results quickly. Click on the most accurate result and it will be instantly converted into a URL that you can take with you wherever you want and share with whomever you please. Click on the link, and you will be taken to the site of web-based media player Grooveshark, which will start playing your selection. Absolutely no registration is needed.”

From TechJaws:

“We’re always happy to hear about other Sharks out there in the water, and it makes us proud to know that there’s a music service out there just for Sharks like us.

It’s called Grooveshark, and it’s part Peer-2-Peer application, part online music streaming social network. If you’re anti-Peer2Peer or concerned about the legal aspects of sharing your music and downloading others’ music (and you should be), there’s Grooveshark Lite, which is just the web front-end and requires no installation of software to operate.”

From Download Squad:

“Having an emotional moment but just can’t seem to express yourself with words? Well send a TinySong and tell the World how you feel with music instead.

TinySong is a nifty new application from the folks at GrooveShark that allows you to search for a track on the GrooveShark database, then gives you a short link that you can cut and paste into into an email, instant message or add to a blog entry if you want to funk it up.”
