Uh-oh... Pandora's going to start charging.

To keep the music you love flowing we have a variety of easy options for you to consider if you reach the 40-hour limit: listen for free as much as you'd like on desktop and laptop computers; pay $0.99 for unlimited, ad-supported listening for the remainder of that month; or become a Pandora One subscriber to get unlimited listening with no advertising.


I have it going all the time on my iPad via WiFi so I assume that's cool-- it sounds like they're singling out smart phone listeners for some reason.

It was really painless. I used the 99 cent option, and reached the 40-hour limit somewhere around the 15th-20th of the month (most months, I coughed up the dollar, but you don't have to).

And I can't even remember how the ads worked - were they graphic side-bars on the player page? I don't remember hearing audio ads...
