This seems a fine place to ask: Is there a way to get a Spotify-like user experience, but for creative commons music? I'd happily pay a few bucks a month if someone else's back-end would divvy it up to the various artists' tipjars.
I've discovered tons of great new and new music thanks to the stations in VLC. Was stuck listening to old tunes for almost 20 years. I. Old but there's tons of greatusic being produced. Not pop music, though, that's for sure
