And that's where the social music sites, like last.fm and Pandora, comes in.
I use last.fm, and it works both ways:
- There's recommendations based on what I listen to, and there's the "similar bands" on every band page. I was able to find some really good stuff using these tools.
- You can see what your real life friends are listening to. I check my friends list and if there's any band there on the "top artists", I'll go check them out.
This is not about anonymous posting, but anonymous access.
The users will only have internet access after supplying name, address, phone number and identity number to the ISP, who would then verify this information. Both the user and the ISP can be charged if they fail to do this properly.
I live in Brazil, and this is what I could find so far.
The really funny thing is the place with the highest nerd population on the net is making fun of this kid like if every/.er would just take the jokes graceously and learn how to laugh with them...

We don't need the Labels to filter things for us.
