Have the Big 4 nailed Global Pandora?
p2pnet news | Music:- “Pandora is dead in the UK, but listen to it outside the US,” p2pnet posted, “For the moment.”
“It’s on Go2Web20.”
But, “I guess this solution is temporary,” said Orli Yakuel on the site.
“So enjoy it as long as it last.”
Was that a self-fulfilling prophecy?
Because where we are, for the last day or two, “We’re having unexpected technical difficulties. Our engineers are scrambling to fix things. Please try again later.”
We will. But sadly, the question remains: is this another music-lover-friendly site that’s been been shot by Warner Music, EMI, Vivendi Universal and Sony BMG, the greedy, tiny-minded members of the Big 4 organised music cartel?
Stay tuned.

If it was in Canada I would have used it but I think better solutions are to be found….perhaps sooner than later.

I’m in Canada and I enjoyed it.
I’m sorry, but not in the least surprised, to see this.
Cheers!

it wouldn’t let me regerster w/canadian address
“We are deeply, deeply sorry to say that due to licensing constraints, we can no longer allow access to Pandora for listeners located outside of the U.S.
We believe that you are in Canada (your IP address appears to be xxxxx). If you believe we have made a mistake, we apologize and ask that you please contact us at”

maybe you should delete that IP address for the poster Jon. it seems a bad idea to post in public.

It will not save the music parasites from desintegration in progress as we speak.
