Pandora Plus is a good match for me with no commercials. Some artists have been introduced to me (or reintroduced). The cost is minimal - well worth it!!

I don't like it when the station tells you that it's free. But every time you turn it on. They ask you to try it for a month for free. Then they bill you after you text them stop. It took 3 months last time to stop billing me.

It's great and best of all it's free. I don't have extra money to spend on stuff like this so it's great to find something free that actually works well.

When I started with Pandora it was free. I am still using Pandora, and it is still free to me. I love Pandora for allowing their services to be free to me.

Pandora works fine for me. I use it while I am exercising. The selection of music is ok. The ads are a little annoying but I do not use it enough to pay for the premium service.

Way too expensive. What's the point. Highway robbery. They should make music more affordable. It's just as much as a cable bill. Pointless. I would use Amazon which you pay for a year 99.00.

The Pandora experience was good. Just a bit confusing on selections and where to find them. Selections need to be easier to locate and play. And need to have more holiday music.

I love listening to Pandora while I play games on my desktop. They have all types of music for whatever mood I'm in. I mostly listen to religious Music. Marvin Sapp is my favorite.

Great service. Love that you can make your own stations based on an artist you like & they will find similar songs. Also love the fact that there is a mechanism to reject songs you don't favor & they will not be played again. Lyrics for songs are also available.

I like being able to set a channel for a particular type of music or a musician. I don't like the painfully repetitive ads for Luminosity - every other song sometimes! Plus the constant need to be near enough to click, "yes, I'm still listening" every few minutes. When I have it on I'm doing yard work, cooking or entertaining and it is very annoying to stop everything and go back to my iPad to click yes. Also, the channels have a limited number of songs from the selected artist, so after a short while it's all other musicians. I'm on the free level but I only use it once or twice a week, not enough to justify the paid service.

I enjoy being able to look up my favorite singer and then saving them as a station so I don't have to keep looking them up every time. They also have unlimited music I've seen so much in my life. I never get bored with Pandora around.

Really like Pandora for my preferred music of choice depending on my mood. Ads are a bother for the free subscription, but the upside is that they are short and sweet and then they're done and it's back to my music again. Also, the website is kept simple so that it is sooo easy and fun to use.

I use the free Pandora. It's OK, but because it's free, features are limited. I've been looking for older R&B, Jazz, Blues, R&R, but selection is limited.

The range of music is great. Categorization of music types is also helpful. My biggest complaint is that I would like to be able to have greater control of specific tunes.

The service is excellent. I use the free one which is rather convenient. Would be even better if I subscribed which I have thought about, yet something always occurs before I sign up.

Pandora is a great service that tailors to your likes and dislikes by voting on a thumbs up or down while listening. They then only play what you enjoy or something compatible with it. They offer a variety of music in all genres with or without commercials, with fees or it can be free.

I like exploring new music but I also like being able to reject the ones I don't like and move on to others. Pandora makes this easy for me and also allows me to easily find those that I want to hear again.

I love using Pandora, as it's like a customization radio. I don't even mind the commercials as I've grown up with commercials on the radio. What I have found though is a very limited number of songs and I can listen for a couple of hours and hear songs I just heard the day before. Also, sometimes the stations I pick end up playing songs that are really don't seem to fit in as far as the genre or type of music.

Pandora has every variety of music with no commercials. You only need to type in a genre, artist or song title, and poof, your music is there. The quality and sound is extraordinary. Pandora makes my day much less stressful.

I love Pandora and I play it all day long while I'm working. It's very easy to create new stations and I like that Pandora shows me artists whose work I might like. Also, the sound quality is excellent.

It's overall a good listening experience. The ability to save songs as favorites and to delete other songs you dislike is a great feature. There are sometimes some odd selections played for the genre you have selected though. If I'm listening to a Motown station for example, and a Neil Diamond song comes on, I find that a bit strange. The sound levels vary from song to song too, one song may be loud and the next one may be not loud enough. If I had my druthers, they'd all be played at the same volumes and I could set my sound system to the volume I want and walk away. I use the free Pandora so I expect some negatives such as commercials but they're not excessive, and it beats the heck out of listening to FM radio.

I get all that I'm looking for, the genre, the artist bio, etc... Also the sites cater to my taste by offering like artists. The sky is the limit for finding artists that were out of reach to me before. I now know more about Louisa Mark than I needed to know.

Pandora is a awesome app. I really enjoy the fact that you can thumb up a song you really like and thumb down the ones you don't. Also I enjoy being able to customize different channels to your liking.

Pandora has a great selection of music and the ability to let subscribers create their own radio channels. However, navigation is less than easy -- I sometimes just settle for the last channel I listened to because moving to another channel is unusually complicated. No direct contact for subscribers to get navigation help. New site design homepage uses such a small font that I have to get up and walk across the room in order to move around in the site.

I think that all digital music should be automatically free with purchase of phone. I don't think the Consumer should have to pay for ad removal to enjoy a 5-10 set of commercial free tunes. Overall Digital music is great.

Pandora has a great number of music which suits my tastes which range from the 50's to some current day music. I seem to be stuck in the 80's with "Hair Band Channel". One of my favorites but I also like country and classic. You can pay but I don't and I still find it enjoyable as I was raised on 45 records 8 tracks and lots of radio commercials.

I really enjoy Pandora basic service. The ads aren't too frequent like regular radio and the music selection is excellent. I used to use the premium service when you paid once a year but then they started billing a monthly fee and I don't want to deal with monthly payments for a music service.

Pandora is really great. Any kind of music, podcasts etc you can possibly imagine. I keep it on most of the day. Local radio stations are available too. I don't even know all that's on Pandora. There are so many channels that you can find any genre you enjoy.
