Another music social site. Not even Pandora seems to be able to monetize this. You have to focus on places where people are actually willing to pay for music (which is not the Internet.) I would take Dash Media http://www.dashmediausa.com with satellite radio in the car any day. That way I get all the personalization of a music recommendation engine with good quality music.

It’s pretty amazing how well Jango has done in such a short period of time. What also struck me is why Jango has attracted so many users while similar services have struggled. Here’s what I think:

The reason I started it, was to learn more about information extraction, and web indexing. Their aren’t many people who will pay you to learn those things on the job.

A reason why music startups are so prevalent might be their emotional connection. Music has a lot or people the a really connected to music at an emotional level. They might just enjoy making software that has to do with music. That is definitely the reason why I started my site.

I doubt they avoid legal risks by “not hosting” the music. Napster didn’t host it, either. Also, most of the music video results are invalid. When I clicked to view them, most of the YouTube videos said they are no longer available.
