The long-awaited Pandora music-streaming app for Windows Phone 8 has been released. And, according to people who've used it, it's very good.
Not only is it good, it's free and without subscription for Windows Phone users until the end of the year.
And without ads.
But, it's only for the US, Australia and New Zealand.
Not for the UK. Or anywhere else, for that matter, until Pandora sorts out licensing agreements.
It's still:
We are deeply, deeply sorry to say that due to licensing constraints, we can no longer allow access to Pandora for listeners located outside of the U.S., Australia and New Zealand. We will continue to work diligently to realize the vision of a truly global Pandora, but for the time being we are required to restrict its use. We are very sad to have to do this, but there is no other alternative.We believe that you are in United Kingdom (your IP address appears to be 81.132.66.230). If you believe we have made a mistake, we apologize and ask that you please email us.If you have been using Pandora, we will keep a record of your existing stations and bookmarked artists and songs, so that when we are able to launch in your country, they will be waiting for you.We will be notifying listeners as licensing agreements are established in individual countries. If you would like to be notified by email when Pandora is available in your country, please enter your email address below. The pace of global licensing is hard to predict, but we have the ultimate goal of being able to offer our service everywhere.We share your disappointment and greatly appreciate your understanding.Sincerely,
Tim Westergren
Founder
