The reports offered similar recommendations but they gave different artists. Pandora's recommendations were more similar with each other and there wasn't as much of a variety in the types of music that was played. Pandora allowed you to customize what was played more because you can say what you liked or disliked in the songs that were recommended. Last FM had more of a diverse range of types of music that they said related to the specific artist. Last FM provided more than just playing music but also had comparable artist links and the different albums that the artists had. They were, overall, extremely similar and accomplish the same purpose. The two sites LastFM and Pandora offered similar music recommendations. However, LastFM gave a more diverse list of artists, and its suggestions were for bands that are more obscure. I personally prefer LastFM because I feel like it is a better source for discovering new bands and musical groups that I have never heard of. Pandora radio seems to suggest songs and artists that I like but have already discovered in the past.
