The ~$10 that Pandora charges needs to cover all their infrastructure and overhead as well as the music licensing.
If Amazon wants to include such a feature as an added benefit to attract more people to Prime, they only need to cover the licencing, and going by their history, not even that, if they are willing to make a little less overall profit on the $99 membership cost for the benefit of bringing more people into the ecosystem.
