Really, you shouldn’t share your SDMB account with your cat.

With cats, there is no sharing. They take what they want, and to hell with the human’s desires.

They didn’t, that’s not how Pandora works. When you type in the name of an artist, song, genre, or something else, Pandora creates a channel with music similar to what you’ve typed. If they don’t have the rights to play the artist whose name you typed in for a channel, they’ll play the closest stuff they have rights to.

In short, Pandora doesn’t have a “Laura Osnes” channel; you do.

I’m reviving this because I think I know what the OP is on about.  
Yesterday I took one of their surveys. They told me if I took the survey I would get 4hrs of commercial free listening. Well, two songs after the survey, I got a damn commercial. And many more after that. I never got my 4hrs commercial free Pandora.  
So… FUCK YOU PANDORA!!

Dicks!:eek:

It’s only been a year since the OP was posted. Give it nine more before expecting a response. It takes time to craft these masterpieces, after all.

Hmm. How far away from Earth would you be, to take 10 years to post a message?

10 light-years.  
Assuming you don’t have sub-space WiFi.

In which case, we should be expecting to see a reply in 20 years.

:rolleyes: nah. Read it again for comprehension. They just promise you that they wont ask you again for 4 whole hours if youre “still listening?” And then they bombard you with annoying commercials at top volume every 4th song.

I though that the New Yorker television critics were indeed unnecessarily harsh against Ms. Explorer and her new cartoon show for tweens.

Dicks.
