Spotify (https://www.spotify.com/en/)
Spotify is a streaming music program that allows instant listening to specific tracks or albums with almost no buffering delay. Music can be browsed by artists, albums or created playlists as well as by direct searches. Although it is not possible to save the streamed music for use outside the application, a link is provided to allow the listener to directly purchase the material via partner retailers. It looks like itunes.

Download a little program and listen to all the music you want, You cannot download the tracks to your computer, just listen to them but its a great way to discover new music., Within seconds I had the Chicane back catalogue to listen to. :) I love the fact you can create playlists. The downside is when using the free version it plays an advert every so often so in that respect I suppose its like a radio station but with your choices of music.
A news article on it:
