Listening to music during workouts is essential, but sometimes it can do more harm than good. The problem is, I can't help but run to the beat of the music. Finding a song with a tempo that matches your exercise pace does the trick, but building perfect gym playlists takes time. Bestworkoutmusic.com is a site where you can search for and purchase songs to help solve this dilemma. After starting by figuring out your preferred pace matched to beats per minute (bpm), the BeatScanner feature allows you to select tracks from your library using the bpm rate that you specify. Even better, for all of your favorite songs that don't quite match your pace, there is the Repacer which changes the beat of any song to match your work out, a feature formerly only available to aerobics instructors and DJs. The great service would benefit greatly from a site redesign and unfortunately, it is only PC compatible for now.

More interactive than conventional internet radio, though not as gratifying as Napster was in its glory days, Jango is a New York City-based music site with a large database of songs and artists and is instantly addictive. Now in its beta launch, there's a waiting...
La Blogothèque's Concerts à Emporter
La Blogothèque's Concerts à emporter (Take-Away Shows) are a collection of live, unedited videos of musicians playing in unusual settings. The artists' unpredictable interaction with the environment and the reactions of often clueless bystanders result in a genius blend of music video and reality TV. With a sharp eye for incorporating improvised performances into unexpected spaces, director Vincent Moon creates and captures moments that...
iConcertCal
You may already know, but iConcertCal is very useful and we think it is worth another reminder. With the free plug-in, you should never again miss a show due to bungled dates or forgetfulness.
