I defragged my computer and now I have lost all of my saved directories of favorite artists. When I try to login it keeps saying Pandora keeps sending back an error message that my email was entered incorrectly. Then when I click on "lost my password" it says that my email is already on file and won't let me have access again. I love this site and like to have it playing in the background all day while I work. Can anyone out there help?

These are awesome! I watched them all. ^^ The videos sort of remind me of exploring wikipedia... you never *where* you'll end up.

Pandora is the bomb !!! I love it. Keep it pumping!!!

Amazing station!!! I love the bands like U.N.K.L.E. which is who I put in originally. You guys keep it up, just like you are!!

Luv it!!

Feature Request:

Make it so I can add thumbed up/down songs to my station via Station/Options/Edit. It would help me train Pandora faster.

@morgan That's because you "borrow" music.

@kagitsune You never end up where you started. It used to be called surfing the web.

@ethicalhacker we don't need training.

How does Pandora work? It analyzes data in waves, bits and bytes and compares them to other sounds/songs/music/noise and gives you a next song that is a smooth transition, or preferably a resonance, of the previous song, like DNA.

This is FANTASTIC! I was just writing about how Pandora does this, and this totally captured the essence of the path to music discovery. Brilliant!

This is FANTASTIC! A visual representation of how Pandora helps in music discovery. I was just writing about how this all works, and it was pretty sweet to see this put together. Nice job team Pandora.

This is a feature suggestion. I am sometimes so focused on what I'm doing, that I can't take the time to do thumbs up and down, and in that case, I like predictability. But sometimes I'm just goofing around, and I have lots of attention to evaluate unpredictable songs.

I think it would be really cool if I had a little slider for Pandora that slides from predictable to adventuresome. This way, when I have a lot of attention to spare, I can expand the range of my stations, but when I'm focused elsewhere, I can avoid annoying music.

I also think that it would be wonderful if I could vote on a song more than once. That way, if I really loved one of the songs, I'd vote for it a lot, and Pandora would know what types of musical DNA that I'd like the best of all.

Jus tlove pandora wonder what would i do without it. Watching all the videos feature is awesome.

Thanks Pandora for this good news. I love music!

I just wanted to thank everyone who has made Pandora possible. I love being able to create a station. It is a dream come true - and being in a cube environment 11 hours a day is now tolerable.

thank you.

Wow Pandora...this music rocks me. Thanks

Thanks again Pandora. Music is my life. And this one is really great!

Thanks guys, as ever you rock!

Pandora is awesome! Keeps me rockin! Cheers

Great way to bring back the love for country music. But Im here in Costa Rica listening to salsa. I miss home.

Hi. I just started listening to Pandora recently. A co-worker told me about it, although I normally listen to my own internet station on Live365. ("Not Too Smooth Jazz" is the name of my station, at www.live365.com/stations/smjzzfan.)

Anyway, my question is...can someone request artists to be added to the Genome Project? So far, a few artists I've tried to add (who I feature on my own station) are not in your "library", if you will. A particularly awesome example is David Boswell, whose music sounds quite similar to the style of Pat Metheny (who IS included in your "library".)

Do you add artists at the request of listeners?

Thanks!

a manual thumbdown is more important as a preventive measure, rather than training.

Thanks guys for the information, just real addicted to pandora and love the music.

pandora does have some great music recomendations but i wish some of that licensing stuff could be sorted out as it gets frustrating when you cant listen to one of the tracks that listened to before.

PAndora relaly rocks and this music collection was awesome.

Wow pandora
That is interesting and the music rock my world
thanks

Really interesting post. It's nice to have a "sneak peak" of how this system works ;)

Keep up with the good work guys.

Darren,

Dear Tim, I wish you would put the entire Concord Jazz library on your sight. There is a lot of great stuff there. ( I am Cal Collins' widow, so of course I would like the universe to have access to his 28 recordings on their stuff, both as a leader and as part of the Concord Super Band, and as a sideman with R
osemary Clooney, Scott Hamilton, Warren Vache, etc.) Hope my computer skills are enough to get this posted - 2nd try. I play on your sight regularly, and wish I could turn other listeners on to Cal.

thank you for providing info.i really love having you guys on pandora

Come on Tim... get the Concord Jazz library into your book. I'm not the only one who would like it.

How about Pandora for G1 Phone???

WE WANT PANDORA FOR G1, PLEASE!
Google Phone + Pandora = BEST THING SINCE SLICED BREAD!!!
