PSA

Apparently Pandora still doesn't work outside the US, Australia, and New Zealand (I wasn't really holding my breath on this one).  But some friends recently clued us in: Jango works exactly the same way!  And it works here!  When we tire of our iTunes collection, we no longer have to rely on YouTube mixes, which range from monotonous to inexplicable.  Did you know that if you type in Sinead O'Connor (don't judge my musical tastes based on this example; Little Guy is a blank slate for musical interests so we listen to everything I can think of and tolerate) and then click on the mix, you wind up with a playlist that includes a) only one Sinead O'Connor song that isn't blocked for licensing reasons (probably because it's House of the Rising Sun, so not actually her song) and b) the likes of Bryan Adams (yes, with video clips of Robin Hood Prince of Thieves), Aerosmith (yes, with video clips of Armageddon), the final dance from Dirty Dancing, and (wait for it!) Eminem's Love The Way You Lie?
