If you Scrobble, the last.fm recommended artists station can be good. I also go there and look at new releases every few weeks to see if there is anything I'm missing. The new releases under your profile will be tailored to artists you like and similar artists.
There re is an iOS app called Band of the Day which has turned me on to some good stuff. Can't be played on you Squeezeboxes, though. I fire it up every few months and go through the history. You can usually listen to 3-5 tracks while reading a bio and such. When I do find a new artist I like, I listen to the similar artist station on Rhapsody, Last,fm, or Slacker. It it does seem harder and harder to find good new musicÂ… Sigh.
