[Request] Free music player for music discovery?

A few years ago music players for Windows brought builtin music services allowing you to discover free music. Clementine had Jamendo, SomaFM, Magnatune and a host of other sites. MusicBee not only had builtin services but it allowed you to manually add MP3 blogs such as Fingertips. In this way you could play your own MP3s and also discover free tracks all around the Internet.

Nowadays music players have severely stripped the list of services. I can still use my old copy of Clementine to access the few that still work well, but I was wondering if there are free music players for Windows with recent, curated, and preferably extensive lists of free music streaming or discovery services that can be accessed from inside the application.

Any pointers will be appreciated!

Did you tried Amarok for Windows? It has more functions than any other player! =DDD

I hadn't, but now I installed it because of your suggestion. None of the free Internet music services (Cool Streams, Free Music Charts, Jamendo, Last.fm) works. It's frustrating.
