Internet radio?

[Bread]

Thought I'd finally try and see about this, since it's been on my mind for a while.

I need music while I work, and I'm a bit averse to changing my usb-drive's music selection all the time, so internet radios seem a logical choice. Problem is, Google searches so far have turned up a bit dodgy results, and even Last.fm apparently has a 50 song limit / trial, which bummed me, since I'd heard so much good of it. What I'm looking for is a free alternative, which still has the usual genres. No nonsense, and importantly, no ads bothering my musical enjoyment.

Any suggestions, leads, jeering commentary on how a fella shouldn't expect anything for free in the modern society? Do tell.

What exactly are you looking for? Grooveshark works well for randomly generated genre playlists as well as taste-based playlists. But for an actual radio with a human behind, I dunno. Maybe in the form of a podcast?

Oh, no, didn't mean a proper radio with announcer and whatnot. Just music, hopefully without meddling ads in the mix.

PANDORA.

I also like EVE radio; DJ Desire had a meltingly sexy voice, although I don't know if she still works there.

Thanks much, very good answers which led me on the right path.

That's weird, lastfm radio used to be free of limits on songs and skipping, commercials even. Guess a lot has changed since I last had a listen. If I need to hear a particular song on demand I usually go to grooveshark. Pandora is a rather nice concept but I don't like the selection of music it gives me in comparison with lastfm, and the adverts there are far more annoying.
