Getting sick of the same old music

If your getting sick of the same old music, try using Dan's wrapper program for Pandora, aptly named Pandoras Box. It's pretty class. Minimises to the tray. Uses the multimedia keys on your computer for volume control, playlist control and even song voting! He's make a good job of it in all fairness.
