I'm sure there's other/better free options out there for those interested in online play-lists... but I can't see a time where you need access to play music for a party and aren't able to install anything onto a computer. [example: office computers won't let you install an mp3 player and you don't have any other way to play music for an office party? really? then you're office is lame and shouldn't have a party or should hire someone]...but I mean with windows media player built in I can't see why you wouldn't beable to have music on a USB stick, or memory card...or plug an ipod/mp3 player in... etc these are not good sites to use. for the sake of curiosity, boredom, and entertainment tried the first one and although it says it’s pulling up results, the site is bogged down too much to play them through when you select them or add them. end result, mixturtle looked cool, had potential, but was a dud.
