Similar to Amazon is http://cduniverse.com/

Also Myspace is good for finding new music, lots of indie as well as commercial artists.

www.pandora.com

Enter an artist/song you like and Pandora will find/play/reccommend similar artists/songs.

Check out Archive.org
There's all kinds of music there, quite a bit of it lossless.

WQXR www.wqxr.com and WNYC www.wnyc.org in New York are both online with high data rate transfers. Most Saturdays 'QXR has live broadcasts of the Metropolitan Opera. If you like oldies, WMTR AM is like stepping back into the 1960's (www.wmtram.com) If you like real oldies -- recordings from the 20's and 30's www.wfuv.org has "The Big Broadcast" on Sunday evenings -- one of the oldest running radio shows in the U.S.

amazon.com for smaller clips

pandora.com is pretty good but last time i used it, after a few songs, you have to wait or re-visit the site in order to pick the songs you want (there's some sort of feature that pre-selects "songs for you" based on listening history)

i'd recommend using MySpace for previewing songs just because of the sheer ease of it for most popular artists

Accuradio has a BIG selection of different styles (Classical/Jazz/etc etc) that you can choose - you can also change the shuffle so certain groups/artist will not be played.

for my 80s punk/new-wave fix (stuff that wasn't played on the radio)

Subpop has lots of full MP3 samples

I'll vouch for Pandora as well. VERY cool. You make a list of songs you like, and it plays songs that are musically similar to those.
