. pandora down? need to find the window asking if you're still there .
. boo a song? doing that makes the station your own;
prev' owner's changes will stop being applied .
. pandora boring? garageband has been witholding access to my fav'lists;
.... ok .
9.2: news.addn/net/free tunes:
. I used to use Pandora a lot but it isn't available in Canada anymore
so now I use Blip.fm
. if they want a similar service that will work in any country
Oh, and more free music with an eclectic bent:
for those in the UK:
or
Spotify -- need to download a programme
9.2: pos.addn/net.pandora.com:
. changed [ambient].channel to [study flow];
changed [new age ambient].channel to ambient.channel .
. started out on psy trance moving what I like to [study flow],
but there's so much of what I like,
I just move what I do like but is breaking flow to:
has words? electronica,
no words? ambient;
but then for [psy trance]:
. when it has words, all the words were spoken;
words (not singing)? ambient .
9.6: addn/net.pandora.com`psy trance for study:
. most people using music to enhance learning
would use certain classical music to study by;
I found that rather surprising
because after exploring the suggested classics
they seemed to be very expressive, as if telling a story;
and, this may help IQ by stimulating the mind;
but, I think it only works as a pre-treatment:
as a concurrent activity the classics were always hogging my attention .
. many of them were also curiously aggravating,
perhaps familiarity breeds contempt?
but then it reminded me of being surprised on the bus
when some would become vocally angry
at others talking around them in a foreign language .

You Are Approaching Your Free Listening Limit
We wanted to let you know that you are approaching your monthly free listening limit. Pandora gives you 40 hours of free listening per month.
Why is free monthly listening limited?
If you'd like to listen more, you have three options. We hope that one of these works for you:
1. Pay 99 cents. Once you reach Pandora's free monthly listening limit,
the music will stop and you will be presented with an option to pay just 99 cents
to continue unlimited listening for the rest of September.
This is a one-time fee which requires a credit card,
and it does not recur automatically.
2. Pay $36 to upgrade to Pandora One.
For unlimited monthly listening as well as other cool features,
you can upgrade to Pandora One for $36 per year.

3. Pay Nothing. If neither of the above options is right for you,
simply come back in October to start listening to your stations again.
The Pandora Team
. it's a one time fee means it's not recurring,
you have to pay again every month .
1) Pay 99 cents for the rest of the month. In the message window that has appeared, you can pay 99 cents to receive unlimited listening hours for the remainder of that month. You can only pay the 99 cents when you actually hit the limit and the music has stopped. Anything you see until then is just a friendly warning that you're approaching the limit.
The 99 cents is a one-time fee which requires a credit card, and it does not recur automatically. We use the same security measures banking sites use to protect your credit card information.
NOTE: Paying the 99 cents does not remove advertising, or the daily skip limit; it just gives you unlimited listening hours for the remainder of the month.
If you reach the listening limit in a future month, you will have the option to pay 99 cents again with just a few clicks.
my response:
. that is a good deal ...

or delete cookies .
