I have written about a lot of participatory internet sites for movie reviews, travel experiences, restaurant reviews, etc. Here is Riffin.com which allows you to be your own disc jockey and perhaps make money doing it. Riffin' allows users sign up as "Webjockeys" and build annotated playlists. Webjockeys are paid cash when other visitors make song purchases from their playlists. The songs are legal downloads of DRM-wrapped WMA files, and the built-in library includes 4.3M songs. It says that it is approved by all Major labels and hundreds of independents.
I heard about Riffin after writing about a talk on consumer music sharing at the Berkman Center by Derek Slater. Maybe I will give it a try.
