	Help with Launchcast Problems / Tips on Using the Yahoo Launchcast Radio Free Internet Service
		Launchcast uses two "bins"—a rated bin (which includes songs played because you rated the song, album, or artists) and an unrated bin (which includes songs played for all other reasons).
		Launchcast uses general popularity and your other ratings as factors in choosing songs from the unrated bin, so it's best to assign the under-40 ratings to (a) songs that are generally popular but not things you want to hear that often, or (b) songs that are in genres where you have other songs rated 40+.
		Launchcast has pledged to keep working on this issue, but your only option for avoiding ads—repetitive or otherwise—is to sign up for the paid Launchcast Plus service.

	The Lion's Den: Get to know new music on launchcast
		Launchcast, like most Internet radio stations streams genre music over a real audio encoded stream along with information on the artist and the album.
		It was a couple of months ago that Launchcast played Fun For Me by Moloko, introducing me to a song that quickly became a favorite.
		I do not want to kill the whole genre (you can rate genres as well as artists, albums and songs) since there is the occasional rap song that I would like to hear, so I resort to rating individual artists to zero when they come up.

	Scotland on Sunday - The Review - Launchcast radio promises to play what you really want (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		IN THIS age of paranoia, the tagline for Launchcast online radio service is pretty remarkable: "Music that listens to you." As in, Launchcast knows exactly which artists you love and which you hate.
		It may only be a matter of time before the authorities try to get their hands on Launchcast’s user information to crack down on indie kids who are using the service to listen to Arab Strap, Massive Attack and other such inappropriately named acts in a time of war, but it’s worth a go.
		Even though Launchcast gives you the ability to rate an artist highly but also ban that artist’s one song you can’t stand, the service also makes you a more tolerant listener.

		In this age of extreme paranoia, the tagline for Yahoo!'s Launchcast online radio service (www.launchcast.com) is pretty remarkable: "music that listens to you." As in, Launchcast knows exactly what artists you like and who you hate.
		Even though Launchcast gives you the ability to rate an artist highly but also ban that artists' two albums or even just that one song you can't stand, I think the service also makes you a more tolerant listener.
		The most important thing when you use Launchcast is to be honest, because if you make a station based on what you think is cool, you're only cheating yourself by making yourself listen to Radiohead.

		Launchcast is great for active listeners enabling you to instantly look up artist information and repertoire at the click of a button.
		Launchcast would be a perfect platform from which to listen to your favourite music and find new music matching your tastes if it wasn't misleading in its claim to 'taylor' your station according to your preferences.
		Launchcast will give one of three reasons for playing a track which has nothing to do with your musical tastes: 1) This song matches your genre preferences (?) 2) This song is popular in your key genres (?) 3) This song is popular on Launcast.

		Due to the wonderful people over at LAUNCHcast we are able to bring you Silverginger Radio.
		LAUNCHcast uses Windows Media Player (which is available for Macs, too), and runs in a pop-up browser window so that you can listen while you carry on browsing the Web.
		Beware though that LAUNCHcast occasionally puts in one of their own choices which may seem a little left of field, but the magical Skip button takes care of those little embarrasments - you have been warned!

		If you know a LAUNCHcast user who has particularly good taste, you can indicate that he or she is your “influencer.” It’s also fun to spy on other people’s musical preferences this way.
		While LAUNCHcast plays a much wider variety of music than any traditional radio station, not every song/album is available to you.
		LAUNCHcast also appeals to one’s competitive side with its “rating levels.” The more songs/albums/artists you rate, the higher your ranking.

	anything better than Launchcast or Live365? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		After using both options, I really like Launchcast, except for one thing: I feel the song selection really isn't random, but is very weighted towards newer releases.
		Not only that, but I had to weed through all the other new crap that they tried to throw on me, like bands that I've never heard of that are in my genre (I selected hard rock and classic rock as my 2 genres of music).
		If there's a viable alternative to LaunchCast that anyone's aware of, please let me know because I'd really like a station that truly is customized to my tastes.
