Lately I've started having internet radio stations going in the background and when I hear something I want to check out more I push the Audio Hijack button and get it into my iPod playlist for "radio snags". Then I listen more carefully when walking or traveling. I look for the streams at 192 kbps and hijack recordings at 160 kbps in the AAC format. Audio fidelity is ok for listening for finding new music or learning production and mixing tricks. If I should hear something really good I go looking for a CD. I have also found new music by the P2P community SoulSeek by doing a search for something obscure that I like and then viewing the shared files of someone that pops up among the search hits (if they have what I was searching for chances are they have more in line with my taste). I also spend some time listening to the streams at www.jamendo.com and sometimes download music for iPod listening. Initially it may be difficult to sort out the crap but as soon as you get connected with "community friends" the recommendation engine starts hinting at "stuff you will probably like".
