Described as “handcrafted internet radio,” 8tracks is similar to Pandora, but in a more alternative way. Instead of a program, 8tracks is full of over 30,000+ mixes that are made by people who know and love music. Recently, they released an Android app version of their original website.

It definitely brings a more social aspect to listening to music and personally, I use the site all the time when I need some study music or want to listen to something but don’t really know what. It’s surprisingly really fun to just browse around and check out what other people have created for your ears.

If I had an Android phone, I can already tell that this would be one of my favorite apps. But you can check it out and listen to playlists galore here in the Android Market for free (the best price, of course)!
