Music
From DuncanWiki
Enjoyable, quality music is becoming increasingly difficult to come by in this post-taste age of homogenized radio. I've spent a fair amount of time searching for new music through music stores and internet sources. During this time I've ccollected over 1,300 CDs ... well over half of which are thanks to the sites I've listed on this page.

Album Covers
I'm in the process of grabbing album art of a decent quality for all of my CDs.
Finding New Music
Music Search Engines
liveplasma.com isn't technically a search engine, but a music relationship exploration tool.
Streaming Music
Streaming music is nice, you don't have to worry about finding something interesting to listen to... someone's already done all of that hard work for you.
Pandora
pandora.com is a high-quality streaming music site that builds stations based on what you like. You can share your profile, search other people's profiles with station lists & never pay a dime.
You can view my profile here.
SomaFM
somafm.com has 14 different stations (as of this writing) with a fairly detailed playlist history. Anything from indie rock, lounge, industrial, country & more. All that and it's mostly by some of the more independent artists around.
Podcasts
Typically large MP3 files either of a radio broadcast or closely mimicking one.
That Sound
That Sound (formerly Post Modern Rock) is a weekly radio program on KPSU hosted by Dave Cusick. Just about every episode is well worth many a repeat listening.
Other
muxtape.com gives you the ability to post virtual mix tapes for ther people to listen to with the ability to buy the individual tracks from online retailers.
My Music
These links are mostly broken right now, hopefully I'll have it fixed in the near future.
- A long list of CDs in a flat text file.
- Favorite artists, the print size is directly proportional to the number of CDs I own by the artist.
- A browsable repository of CDs with high-quality cover art.
