Lala Is a Future Player

At first I wasn't sold on Lala, but now I know it's great. And the reasons are tri-fold. Lala offers the best music sampling option I know of on the internet today. Most places you would even think of that have the option to sample music, don't expect any more than a 30 second clip. Lala on the other hand gives you the entire song to listen to once, which I love. There is nothing more annoying than sampling a song on itunes and hearing a 30 second snip it of an instrumental intro to a song! Secondly, Lala has a feature which allows you to upload your music library into an online Lala library which you can access virtually anywhere with an internet connection. This is an interesting feature, that could come in handy a lot more often than you might think. And thirdly, if you're like me than you love to discover new music. And a lot of the time you never hear anything unless it's mainstreem. But Lala keeps track of the songs you listen to and the genre of those songs. Lala then comes up with sort of a profile of your musical tastes, it then searches through its users and finds users with similar tastes and what they're listening to that maybe you're not. Once you've found a new musical treasure, you can check out their similar artists and its a never ending trail. Lastly, the coolest feature of the intire site: the flash music player at the top which plays your song continuly as you navigate through the different pages within Lala. That feature is one we'll be seeing popping up everywhere really fast.
