This will let you integrate the stuff on your computer into your playlists as well. All the music is streaming.

It seems like the main difference is that there is a free version that gives you a short commercial periodically. A commercial free version is $5 per month. So far I am trying the free version and it is cool. At this point I will likely get the $5 per moth option (there is a $10 version that will let you stream to your phone as well).

My one complaint so far is that a few times when it gets to the commercial it freezes up and I have to restart it to make it work.
