High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Musicovery is an interactive and customised webradio service. Listeners rate songs, resulting in a personalized programme. Reviewers have commented that unlike services that are governed by the user`s choice of artist or genre, this method results in more discovery of artists to which the user might not otherwise have been exposed; The Washington Post`s reviewer gave the example of "segueing from a West Coast R B band to a folk–rock group from Algeria".Musicovery provides dance mix — with the ability to specify the desired dance tempo — and similar artist features, as well as the option of a low fidelity free service or a premium service with better sound. Users have the option to limit the selection to a specific year or range of years, as well as to deselect any genre, and genres are color-keyed to the graphic interface. At least one U.S. newspaper reported that major advertising agency JWT listed Musicovery on its 2007 list of "80 things to watch in 2008," a list of trends and new products and services; however, the article does not indicate whether the agency had any business relationship with companies on the list.
