Wow! It was disheartening to hear that Pandora wasn't the best fit for your project and that you had to search for another. Rhapsody on the other hand sounds like it has earned your students' seal of approval. I know how difficult it is finding music for band. Our school's band has won many state level competitions and I know how difficult it is for them to find and access the appropriate music. It was wonderful to learn that you were able to find the music files you needed for your project. It sounds like you are ready for implementing this in the fall. ~ Sue
I enjoyed your podcast. I think your students will enjoy learning more about the music they are playing through your project. I have a great appreciation for enriching the music experience is for your students.
Erik-- It is really terrific that your students gave such positive feedback on this! Too bad it isn't available in a format for iPods. As you mentioned, it takes time to fully investigate a product or service...and then to test it to see if it supports all the functions you are looking for. This will be a wonderful resource and tool, can't wait to hear more about it.
Sorry if the quality of the video is bad... had to compress it to upload it.
