Paid version wont do that.

This is needed for music playing in the background at restaurants for example.

I'm pretty sure Spotify/Pandora's terms & conditions don't allow that:

Good to know.

The terms may prohibit, but in my observations, I know of many restaurants and small businesses that do it anyway. I'm sure most ignorant of the policy, but how many would stop anyway if still known of it.

Yes it will, it just takes longer to timeout. And you cannot just play a normal Pandora subscription in a commercial setting.
