Palm Pre App Catalog. 30 Apps In 30 Days. Part 2: Pandora
Our second installment in our tour of the Palm Pre App Catalog brings us to another multi-platform app. This time, it is the incredible free Internet radio program, Pandora. I have used Pandora on several devices, including the iPod Touch, and I must say that it offers a simply amazing listening experience.
Unlike ordinary radio, which forces you to listen to a mixture of great songs, terrible songs, and gab; Pandora lets you enjoy nothing but the songs you love. Once you have signed up for a free account, all you need to do is enter the name of the band you wish to listen to. Piece of cake.
If you do not wish to listen to only a single band, then you can also select Quick Mix. This will start with the band you selected, and then move on to songs by similar or related bands.
As you listen, you can rate the songs with a thumbs up or thumbs down. The more you rate, the better Pandora will get to know you, and will match your musical tastes.
In addition to simply playing the music, you can also view the album art, or hit information to get a quick bio of the band or brief background of the current song.
I thought the sound quality was great, although there was a brief pause between songs as it downloaded the next song’s information, but that was not a significant concern. Simply put, Pandora is a fantastic app which turns your Palm Pre into the world’s largest jukebox…and the whole thing is free (unlike most jukeboxes).
