Imeem.com

In case you havn't heard yet, Imeem.com is pretty cool. It's kind of like a crossbreed between myspace and napster, where you can upload music from your personal collection and other people can listen to it and talk about it.

Last year it (as expected) got sued. Everyone expected that to be the end of it.

Early this year it emerged from oblivion with a statement that it had signed licensing deals with all five major record labels. They can play you any song in their library, and if you click on an ad while that song is playing, they send some money to the band. If the band doesn't like it they can individually opt out of having their music available.

So, for those of you that always ask what music I like, and I don't know what to tell you? This is a pretty good sample:

(today, I particularly recommend tracks #7, #19, and #44. #54 is great also)
