Pandora Premium Launches

This week streaming radio service Pandora finally launched their answer to Spotify and Apple Music, Pandora Premium. Pandora Premium is a full-fledged on-demand music service, which will cost $10 a month and deliver millions of songs for users to listen to at will (and offline). The new service of course still has a radio function, and a few other features to help it stand out from the crowd including: a simple, clean interface, curated catalog (which eliminates karaoke, duplicate and tribute tracks), and sophisticated playlist technology. According to the Verge "Pandora has taken the musical analysis and data science behind its radio stations that clusters songs that work well together and combined that with your musical tastes to offer up a small collection of songs every time you tap the magic wand."
