Default Online Radio/player/music

I listen to Pandora all the time the PC is on and have a few very extensive stations created.

I also like sirius and XM for the road and those would be good online deals as well.

AOL has a nice radio player with a lot of stations.

Pandora is best imop. No, I don't have an ipod.

I'll add a player to the poll if requested. If you're interested in Pink Floyd or the Roadhouse (classic country) or outlaw country then listen to kritterkraze stations on [link=http://www.pandora.com/mgp]Pandora[/link] , they are all shared stations created by me.

I just use Itunes, there are probably better choices out there but it works for me.

Pandora now has two strikes against it.

There's now a 12 song skip limit per day per user. No longer can you switch stations to get more skips per hour.
There's now a 40 hr max time per month limit per user.

You must pay for Pandora one then. I get 6 skip per hour per station , but with a max cap of 12 per day.

Q: Can I "skip" as many songs as I like?

Due to the terms of our music licenses, we must constrain the number of "skips" the number of times you move on to a new song in any of these ways:
* giving a song "Thumbs Down,"
* using the "skip" button, or
* choosing "Don't play this song for a month".

There are two types of skip limits:
* All Pandora listeners are limited to 6 skips per hour, per station.
* Listeners to the free Pandora service are limited to 12 total skips per day, across all stations.

To conserve skips, you may give a song "Thumbs Down" or "Don't play this song for a month" status after it has finished playing. You only use up a skip if you use these features on a song that is still playing.

You can upgrade to Pandora One to remove the daily skip limit (although the hourly six-skip-per-station limit remains in place).
