I use it all the time. A bit limited on some of the more niche genre's/artists but pandora is probably what I listen to most these days

Got an E-mail from them today.

They are turning off streaming to UK IP addresses on 15/01/08 in a legal battle over track fees.

Shame.

Is there a way of cheaply obtaining a US ip address to "bounce" off?

I thought conceptually it was a good idea but they have a very limited selection of tracks for the sort of music I listen to, in addition I found that the bitrate they streamed at was very low thus the quality of sound was a bit naff.

Sign up with aol.com, or use a US based proxy ?

That's a great shame. I listen to it a lot, a great idea. Yes, sometimes it's not exactly what you want, but the concept works and you hear artists you might not have thought of, and pick up new music. Really sorry to hear that.
