Comments on: 'I like b-sides' recommends music you're ignoring

I like b-sides is a new service that scours your music library and tells you less popular, but still good music tracks worth your hard earned dollars.

Not a fan so far, Last.FM seems to get my musical preferences better. I'm not sure what it is in my library that's throwing them off (This collections been building since like 2003) but I'm getting all kinds of soft christian rock.

I buy CD albums from Amazon.com, rather than digital downloads. One benefit is that you get lesser known gems as part of the album. Other benefits are superior sound quality, and the fact that your music collection doesn't disappear if your hard disk crashes. (grin)

Superior to downloads, yes but not to vinyl. :-)

i'd like to see something like this but only giving you a playlist for your library instead of more to buy. I've got almost 100 GB of songs and i'd like to get some good playlists of stuff besides stuff i hear all the time. I play around with the smart filters in itunes, but i don't need to buy new music right now.
