pandora v sprint music store?

[HaywireM520]

which would be a better route to go? i have he free trail and really like it. it's like having the radio on my phone. where as with the music store you only get the one song or whatever you choose. how many of you have a subscriition to it and would you suggest it to someone else?

not sure how much a subscription to pandora is, but put it this way

you either pay $x for the pandora subscription and get unlimited streaming music

or translate that $x into the # of 99c tracks (or a bit cheaper if you buy a 6pack) that you can download per month

so do you want unlimited streaming or x# of downloads.

Pardon my ignorance but what is pandora?

[Dubspoon]

As far as I know the service is a download that searches and plays the music that the user chooses. I never used it but never heard a bad review either, buy a 6 pack a month myself though. There is no savings, $5.94=$.99x6, that why I suggest them adding a 7th song free to play off the 7pm n/w and create an option to buy whole albums

I tried Pandora when I had an LG Muziq. It works with what is known as the Music Genome Concept (founded by Tim Westergren). When you enter the name of an artist, or a song that you like, and it begins pulling up music in the same style or genre. You then have the opportunity to give it a "thumbs up" or "thumbs down," and it will continue to tweak your station until you have all music you like. You can have multiple music stations, and name them what you want.

I found that after a while the songs tended to repeat themselves (especially with Christmas music - perhaps I was too finicky!). Also, it's like a radio station. You don't get to pick specific songs. I prefer to buy the music, and play specific songs when I want...

Even having said that, it's a pretty neat concept. I can't use with my Centro, but pTunes at least has Internet Radio, so that has enough variety for my tastes.

I used it with limited success on the V9m. When it worked, it was well worth the subscription price. A heads up, its free to use with your pc.

I never signed up for that Sprint's Music Premier has live radio and if I wanted to hear something particular I would download it

If you have a collection of music on your PC and unlimited data on your phone give ORB a try. Free access to your files on your PC where ever you have an internet connection. Works well on my A900M.

Pandora is well worth the money. The quality of the music is pretty good, and it doesn't buffer much, even in a reuplar vision area.

I just use Resco Pocket Radio om my PPC. Works great and I added my own stations to it. I've tried streaming my 80gigs and you know what, I've heard them all before. That's why I like the radio thing better, I like hearing new stuff.

No it's not; but the variety of Internet radio stations accessible on the Mogul more than makes up for that. BTW, I loved Pandora on my M1; though the music did repeat if you listened to it a lot.
