Great as long as the algorithm isn't hiding a bunch.

I stopped using Pandora years ago when I interviewed with them and they ranted at me about how much they hate paying customers because they make more on advertising, which is when I started paying twice as much for Spotify.

Also, the people I know that use Pandora, and my experience of using Pandora literally since they were announced on Slashdot and were one of the first Flash apps, is that they do better 'radio' than other folks, but if you stick with a channel, it don't change much over years.

Yep. I use Pandora, because it's good at doing a "mood" for different kinds of gatherings. But the stations gather dust over time without modification.
