Worlds biggest free online music service now compatible with the PS3

Not long ago i came accross grooveshark and it became my number one source for listening to music. Unfortunatly the grooveshark music player was not compatible with the ps3 before. Today after couple of weeks i checked again and the site is now updated and is compatible with the ps3's web browser.

Hit the link below to enjoy the widest range of music for free!

Updates:

Apparently the site is overloaded and some users are experiencing problems with the music playback!

No word from GrooveShark as of yet, please be patient and it should hopefully be fixed soon.

2.1 - yea

thats a grate idea, u mean like on the xmb... ye but i think if they do that then they must pay, i wouldnt think that grooveshark would let them do it for free. but then again its a promotion for them as well so u never know!

2.2 - Maybe on their homepage...

But unless they give a DL option, putting it on the XBL would be dumb. Sorry.

Far better idea:
Make it a channel on Life with Playstation. get people Folding while they listen.

Though I think Pandora would make a better choice.

2.3 - godmars

While I disagree with ya about having Grooveshark on the XMB being dumb. I do think it would be awesome being able to use Grooveshark or Pandora while using Life w/Playstation.

What I would love to see, Grooveshark/Pandora on the PS3 XMB under Music. And Hulu (and other video channels) on the XMB under Video. Similar to what the Sony Internet Link has:

2.4 - @Playstation360

Just don't see Sony putting it on the XMB unless it was an obvious benefit to them. If there was a "buy" option via PSN for example.

Thinking about, its almost a sad contradiction that Sony's made an open-access system and the probable reason they don't advertise it more is that all these freebies could effect the shop options that they're still building up.

they really need to get together with sites like this and figure out something for their mutual benefit.

Is to advertise, and in turn get endorsements, for no-hassle view sites for the PS3's browser. Like from Hulu and Youtube.

8 - PS3 sucks, Blu-ray is doomed, Sony sucks, did I mention the PS3 sucks?

Why won't Sony concentrate on games? This is why the PS3 fails....NO GAMES!!!

just in case you could not tell......SARCASM

Yet another use for my beautiful, sexy, big, black monolith.

2009 aside from the WW economic meltdown which I am feeling (laid off) is shaping up to be a banner year for the Sexy black beast....eyeah baybe smashing.

I am having a New Year's party coming up here, and now my PS3 can be the centerpiece of my entertainment room. If I run out of things to play on my HDD and my media server, I can switch to streaming radio, which is awesome in many ways.

Also as much as I think Pandora is awesome, it no longer works outside the US :(

16.1 - It's not Pandora's fault

You can thank the copyright holders (read: record labels / RIAA) for that nonsense.

Even if you're not directly downloading and distributing, the fact that you are enjoying ANY copyrighted work for free, without commercial advertisements, is enough for some legal vulture to get butthurt over it.

Yeah I know about that, I remember at one point Pandora were sending out emnails looking for support from it's users to contact their congressman/woman or their government rep or w/e it was because whoever the body overseeing sites like Pandora were wanted to charge extortionate prices for them to continue operating and they'd have had to shut down.

It sucked because I loved using Pandora and it lead to some record companies getting more money because I discovered some new bands I didn't know about and bought some of their stuff.

i know about this website m8 but unfortunately i'd have to disagree with u, it doesn't come near GroveSharks ease of use. You see GrooveShark is more like an online application and Imeem is just another website and it takes a lot more effort to navigate to what you want.... where with GrooveShark everything is right there on one page....
