I finally found an Internet radio option that works for me. I tried several others, but for various reasons I didn't like them. That was before
Pandora Radio.
Not only does the audio come straight through, without lags or waits, it has a Brain!!
Yes, the
Music Genome Project. The radio chooses selections that fit in a category that the listener specifies, and the listener can teach the radio to refine the choices. Every cut allows you to vote for or against the music, and the radio makes future choices based on the feedback.
How cool is that?!
Ok, if yer not impressed yet...
I found a selection called Siuil A Run... that turns out to be a song we sang at Girl Scout Camp. The lyrics never made sense to any of us, but that didn't stop us from singing it. Now... thanks to Pandora Radio, I can see the lyrics in the original Gaelic, and the English translation.
It's really amazing to me. Fifty years between hearing and seeing.
Now the radio is playing a selection from Maire, whom I happen to know is Enya's sister. I would never have thought to look up any of her music, but it's in my computer now.
I'm a Happy Camper.
Bright Blessings,
