If it's like the Internet station, that's $.99 per month, not per song.
Oops, you're right. I totally misread it.

I love the Pandora app, except I just found out it has two subscription plans: paid= $36/year and free= 40 hours listening, then $0.99 for the rest of the month. I'll easily reach the free limit on the Color; and without flash, I have no other listening options (Last.fm, AOL Radio, BBC Radio, NPR, etc).

Dang, I don't like the idea of being nickeled and dimed to death on the internet. Android 2.2 can't get here soon enough for me.

I need flash!!!
yeah I too love the Pandora app, used it while doing some bill paying and some book keeping. hooked up my little bookshelf speakers to my Nook color.

I have the Roku box on my Christmas list and that comes with the Pandora app preloaded, which will be great with my home theater.

I too thought it was totally free, but I guess $1 a month isn't breaking the bank.

It's highway robbery for those who think that money would be best spent on an iPad not this NOOKcolor wannabe.

I'm sure some will list this as a "con" in their review.

If it was just that, but it isn't. With more and more websites starting to charge, it doesn't take long to hit several hundred dollars a year. Add those charges to your cable and internet bills and we're talking some serious change.

I'm about to sever my TV and rely on the net for all my video needs. There's more than enough free content out there to satisfy my needs. In the meantime, I'll use Last.fm to stream music when I'm near my PCs and reserve Pandora for my NC.

I'm going to see how this Roku goes over, it's supposed to get Hulu + as well , so I'll have Amazon On Demand, syncs with my Netflix account, and if that's the case then I just may cut the cable cord myself, I can get all my sports Over The Air in HD.

I'm with you on that. Unfortunately, others in my household haven't reached this stage.

As soon as flash arrives, I'll switch to Last.fm and cut back on Pandora.

I wasn't being critical of you. Just critical of the critics who don't own the device.

Which Roku are you getting?

So far, I'm more impressed with free Hulu than I am with Hulu Plus. And Netflix doesn't have enough content to make it worthwhile.

Lucky for me that I can do without sports.
