Problem is Pandora is US only. They stopped streaming to the rest of the world years ago.

Damn I didn't even know. That's pretty dumb on their part as they could have been a bigger competitor. I'm sure they made the decision before Spotify took off as hard as it did.

It was a shock when the suddenly announced end of service in Australia, as quite a few Businesses were using their corporate plans for in-store radio, one of the biggest being Woolworths Supermarkets.
