If you are looking for a online music player that is finding a lot of artists you might want to take a look at Spool.fm. You may search for and listen to songs even without registration which is a really nice feature. Registration adds more functionality like playlists for instance that can be saved. The Web 2.0 interface is doing everything it can to make searching and using Spool.fm as comfortable as possible. A search is conducted as soon as you enter the first letter of a song title or artist name and you can drag and drop those to and from your playlist.
Spool.fm automatically recommends similar artists linking to a search on their own site and a biography of the artist on last.fm. Beneath the recommendations is the complete discography of the artist that is currently selected again with the ability to search for songs from that artist on spool.fm.
Once a playlist is saved you can always open it to play the songs again or create more playlists and save them as well. The music player lets you rate songs, play or stop songs, skip or loop them and play random songs. So, everything that you are used to from your local music player is available here as well.
Spool.fm offers another feature that makes the service rather unique. If you want that someone listens to the current song that you are playing you can use the “Listen with a friend” tab to send them an url that leads to the song at Spool.fm.
There is however another possibility to listen to the same songs that a friend is listening to you. A temporary link will be generated and if someone else opens that link he will listen to the same songs that you are currently listening to. This is not limited to one person as far as I can tell.

Nice post.
They really did a great job in the interface.
Sorry for asking but someone know what framework is better to make interfaces like that?
A RAD tool maybe, or just AJAX.
Nice! I like this site. Plus its easy to use.
Ive got an Apple Mac but cant seem to get spool.fm 2 work on it.
