  • Quoted: hired a bunch of “musicologists,” who sit at computers and listen to songs, one at a time, rating them element by element, separating out what sometimes comes to hundreds of data points for a three-minute tune... Over the previous six weeks or so, the Pandora analysts listened to 650 Indian pieces, and the session I observed was a refresher course. Steve Hogan, who oversees Pandora’s analyst squad, had given a half-dozen of its members the same two songs to analyze. The first was “Raga Ahir Bhairav,” recorded by Bismillah Khan in 1955. But the analysts had not been given this cultural information; all they had for the assignment was the music and their ears.

    Quoted: Find local TV listings, read the latest TV show scoops, celebrity gossip and movie reviews and blog about your favorite TV shows, movies and celebrities.

    TV Guide is the name of two North American weekly magazines about television programming, one in the United States and one in Canada. Although the magazines share the same name and a similar logo, they are owned by different companies and publish distinct editorial content. The magazine was started by Walter Annenberg.

    In addition to TV listings, the publications feature television-related news, celebrity interviews, gossip and film reviews. Some even featured horoscope listings and crossword puzzles.
