Pandora to start charging

Pandora Internet Radio has revised its terms of service to state that users who exceed 40 hours a month will be cut off. Listeners can avoid being cut off by paying a small fee of $0.99 that gives them unlimited access. This is both a good and bad thing. Due to he recent settlement between webcasters and SoundExchange that changes the rates on royalty payments, Pandora has to pay more for its content. Given the ease of use this incredible Internet radio service offers I think the $0.99 a month will be well worth it.
