Songza.fm allowed you to listen to music from YouTube in 2007, although lacked the Pandora-like features. In 2010, YouTube blocked their use of the API.
Interestingly, they pivoted into a 'better Pandora' where they license music, allow playing similar songs, but also let users hand-pick songs for playlists (that for licensing reasons can only be played by other people).
