I don't know much about Digg, but Pandora is a fabulous internet 
radio station, and it's all free.  You create your own station that 
plays whatever kind of music you want.  Start by selecting an artist 
or a song, and they search their huge database for other songs that 
are "similar" according to the rules of the "music genome project".  
It picks other songs by other artists, and you just give them a 
thumbs up or thumbs down as it hones in on what you're looking for.  
Truely great stuff, I have a few stations I've created for myself, 
and you can share them with other people, etc.
