[gui-talk] pandora question

[Mike Freeman]

Ken:

I don't have definitive answers to your questions as I have Pandora1, the paid-for service so I don't see ads. But I don't think the original artist played on even as you switched. I suspect the thing remembered where you left off although, most of my channels being classical music or jazz or salsa or Tex-Mex, I'm not sure.

As for the add, I suspect the ad you heard was tailored to you.

Mike

Subject: [gui-talk] pandora question

Hi list special attention mike.  got pandora working at least partly using chrome and have figured how to change stations using the type in an artist field.  not perfecdt but at least I can partly control it.  a couple questions.  first tested the functionality with a couple different artists then went back to who I was listening to first.  I knoticed that when I came back to humble pie the same track was playing.  it appeared to have been playing the whole time I was away from it rather than picking up where it left off.  is that what happens when you switch back and forth?  the next question is when the humble pie song finished an advertisment came on.  the add was for Brad benson’s auto dealership in south brunswick new jersey.  Yeah former giants great brad benson he’s doing really well in business.  is that sponsor nationally heard by all pandora users and if not how does pandora know to give me that add?
