Pandora has done too little too late and has done the wrong things. I gladly paid for a subscription as it was UNLIMITED "Skips" and NO COMMERCIALS. Eventually, they limited their paid subscribers to 6 "Skips" per hour and no more than 24 "Skips" per day. So. in protest I cancelled my Pandora One and continued to use Pandora on a FREE basis since the "Skip Limitation" was put in place.
I Immediately noticed an increase in Ads, when I had Pandora FREE before it was ONE Ad every 5-6 tracks. on my commute to work I would get 2-3 Ads, But now it was almost unusable as it was an Ad after every one or two tracks and sometimes two Ads in a row before returning to the streaming content,
I do not think they thought before they had acted or acted under poor advisement. Not to mention they even attempted a per month "listening duration limit" even for paying subscribers to Pandora One
I have had my Pandora account for quite a while, and my "stations" are pretty well "fine tuned" to my preference as their algorithm works pretty well. I gave in and renewed my Pandora One as I dislike Ads and the Radio MORE than a finite number of "Skips"

how can i adapt a palm treo to use as my phone in 2021?
hi, I am trying to use my dad's old phone as my phone. When I started this idea, I naively thought that I would be able to change out the sim card and be on my way. Well i am here now hoping for any advice on where to go now. Is there a sim card somewhere in the phone? If not, how hard is it to change carriers, I switched to verizon and sprint literally have their name written on the phone.
Hm?
