Gnomoradio
Gnomoradio is an open source application for the GNOME desktop which manages a user's collection of audio files (typically encoded with lossy compression algorithms such as MP3 and Ogg Vorbis). It is very similar to iRATE radio, in that it can automatically fetch content under a license that allows redistribution.
The user can rate the music they have downloaded. The program then tries to build a listening profile based on the user's ratings, and recommends music that other users with similar profiles like. As such, it is an example of collaborative filtering.
Gnomoradio is licensed under the GNU General Public License.
