Many people have taken to online music. It’s a great way to listen to your favorite tunes on-demand and save your playlists or stations. Pandora and Last.fm are some of the most famous ones, my personal favorite being Grooveshark.

Grooveshark streams 50 to 60 million songs per month, to more than 400,000 users. As of April 2009[update], its audience was growing at a rate of 2–3% per day.

Grooveshark aims to help bridge the growing gaps between artists, consumers and those in between who distribute, market, and promote music.

At first, Grooveshark’s homepage greets you with a box that says “Search for Music”. If you know what you want to listen to, simply type the artist or song title into the search field and Grooveshark will bring up a list of everything matching your query.

If you’re not sure what you want to listen to don’t worry. On the left side panel, just click on the Popular Smart Playlist to see the most popular songs on Grooveshark.
