My friend and former colleague, David Porter, just announced 8tracks.  It's the startup he's been working on for the past 2 years, and for which I'm an advisor.   Paul covered it a little while back.

8tracks is an easy way to share and discover new music by creating and listening to mixes.  You can upload your own tracks to create your mix or choose from a library of tracks that the 8tracks community has uploaded.  It's drag-and-drop easy.  Once you've created your mix, you can publish it as a little flash widget anywhere you like.  That's all there is to it.  Here's a mix I just created that contains some of the music on heavy rotation in my ipod this summer.

Sign up for the beta using "rags" as an invite code and let me know what you think.  Congrats to David and the rest of the team - it's great to the result of their hard work finally see the light of day.
