I love Slacker Radio and listen to it all the time. The music selection is great, and I love the way they keep adding new aspects to the service such as playing in the background and caching stations along with the recent pairing of Slacker Radio and ABC News.

Most recently Slacker’s DJ’s revamped their “Party Hits” station just in time for Labor Day BBQs across the Nation.
Sure Slacker Radio has a free service, but at $4.99 a month (or $3.99 if you sign up annually) Slacker Radio Plus is a great deal and, in my opinion, worth every penny. Want an even better deal? We had 5 one-year subscriptions to Slacker Radio Plus to give away. Entering was simple… and fun. You just had to go to Slacker Radio on your computer, create a station by putting in a song or artist title and list the first five songs you heard in the comments below.

Well a bunch of you did just that and, in the process I learned just how eclectic our readers’ musical taste is. The year of Slacker Radio Plus goes to (with my comments in brackets)…
