This site is devoted to the listening of music. People in the fourth grade and older can find this site manageable and pertinent. Pandora is internet radio that allows the user to customize a "station" based on personal preferences. When a song is presented, the listener may skip it, click "I like this song" or click "I don't like this song". Based on the human input, Pandora will begin to "learn" the users preferences. The next song presented on the radio will be centered on the feedback from the previous song. Students could be presented with a new artist\composer to explore. By using this site they can be exposed to new music and be in control of the direction their tastes take them. The students can make connections between a classical composer and current pop-culture music.

I've been kicking around the idea of having teachers and/or students create and share Pandora stations around composers, favorite artists, genres, etc.
