Since being blocked out, I am now listening to <a href="http://www.musicovery.com/" rel="nofollow">Musicovery</a> from the UK. Thank goodness none of that silliness (yet). Quite different but the music is quite good. I kind of miss the thumbs up/down and ways to tweak the selection but then I can always select a different song and artist from what's available. For me, it's my replacement until Pandora is available in Canada. I have blogged about it <a href="http://maceyr.wordpress.com/2007/05/18/bye-bye-pandora-hello-musicovery/" rel="nofollow">here</a>. I've left a comment on Pandora's blog but obviously with a referral link to a different service, it never showed up and I doubt it ever will.

At $3/month, it's a bargain compared to many other wireless apps. Pandora on the Go faces a big challenge though: battery life. I listened to Pandora for about 30 minutes on my cell phone this morning while working out. Because the screen and wireless radio are on the whole time, this depletes the battery more than the talking on the phone for 30 minutes. The battery life on my Samsung A900 is pathetic enough as it is. I need to preserve it for actually talking to people.
