I need to read the list again and see what I like and don't like. I'm usually pretty lazy when it comes to the web, so the more tools the better.
As I sometimes endeavor into productivity on a slow day, I take time to start vague search queries to see where they lead me, in terms of either learning something new, or being included into a group that likes the same unique things I do, too.

I found this quote by a supposed groundworker of Grooveshark, and he explains some of its stances on free online music sharing:

Hey Lucas,

I work here at Grooveshark and I just wanted to clear up some confusion–though Grooveshark and Seeqpod seem similar, we don't really work the same way. The content you see on Grooveshark doesn't come from externally-hosted MP3 or remote link. Like Youtube, all the songs on Grooveshark are uploaded directly from our users to a server, and we just index for searching.

If we *were* spidering content from third-party sites, I can definitely understand being a little perturbed (or downright pissed off) that there's no attribution. That's just not cool, and any site providing bandwidth/content/help to the web should definitely get the credit they deserve.

Anyway, sorry for the confusion/lack of info on our end, Lucas, and if you have absolutely any questions/tips/just want to chat, well, we're now friends on Twitter!

Thanks,
Ben+Grooveshark
