This makes me sad having been a pandora user for years.. And now they drop this on me.

You know, I always found Last.fm far superior to Pandora for finding new artists. Pandora is like listening to music I've already got on my iPhone. Too bad Last.fm's app and service is getting even more restrictive than Pandora...

If it only affects 4% then why even implement something like this just to piss the small 4% of people off I hate companies like this!

It makes no sense to me that its free on the PC but have to pay for mobile even with the crazy number of ads. Goodbye Pandora. RIP.

Y'all should try Songza. No commercials. Free. User and Songza generated playlists. And it's a concierge for you..."Friday evening: Do you want to listen to a playlist for Pre-gaming? Relaxing with friends? Tearing it up at a club?...."

Try it out.

Didn't they already have a limit set up? When I used Pandora...been over a year now, I was shut down once cause I hit my limit. But, I just paid a dollar for the rest of the month. A dollar is not much to ask for the service they provide...even more so, after they give you 40 hours of listening time for free. They do have bills to pay. What I want to know...why are the royalties going up? The record companies and bands are not providing anything better then they are currently providing.

Why are so many people getting upset over a dollar? If you use Pandora so much that you end up having to pay the dollar for the rest of the month, wouldn't you say you got your money's worth?

I personally prefer iHeartRadio, which is highly underrated. Not only can you make your own stations based on artists and songs, you can also listen to radio stations from all over the US. Pandora + TuneIn = iHeartRadio.

I subscribe to Pandora One. But I see a day where they charge more and offer less free.

iHeartRadio is ok, but I find that it has less selection. I listen to Pandora while driving to work, which is about an hour drive very day each way. iHeartRadio replays songs and has way less of a library than Pandora. Not sure how much time I actually spend on it though, is there a way to tell, like a timer or something?
