Re: play.it


Hi jivajiva,

You say that you no longer get excess repetition with Pandora. Is that because
they re-jiggered their system, or did you remove a lot of "thumbs-up"
designations for songs?

I had started finding that my Pandora stations were playing me nearly
exclusively songs that I had thumbs-up'd. I then started removing most of those
designations so that I could get more variety.

If it's safe to thumbs-up songs again, I may tread back into those waters...

excessive repetition at Pandora anymore ... where apparently, HOPE is still in
the box!

Rev. Bear: No the ads really don't drive me nuts. I think if there were more real ads it would bother me more as most just seem to be promos for other CBS...

I'm using it too. But it is extremely tedious work to add music to your station,so no wonder it wasn't advertised. The target area can quickly get crowded,and...
