Well, Apple is going to pull the plug on lala. (For those of you who don’t know, lala let you stream your music library anywhere on the internet, along with buying $.10 “web songs” that had unlimited online plays.) On May 31st, Lala will cease to exist. Whether or not Apple merges lala’s services in with iTunes is yet to be seen, but for those of you who don’t care or don’t want to wait, I present to you an alternative. Grooveshark (http://grooveshark.com). Grooveshark lets you upload your MP3 library, or stream any song just by searching. And the good news is that (if you don’t mind the not-so-intrusive ad) it’s free! So go and check it out! Also, they offer a $3/month ($30/yr) VIP subscription that offers, among other things, streaming to your phone (Jailbroken iPod OS, Blackberry [excluding storm], Android, and Palm OS) and last.fm scrobbing.

(And no, I didn’t get paid for this post!)
