It's only the 12th and I've already racked up 38 hours of listening with my free Pandora account. They're going to shut me down at 40 hours, which I'll probably hit tonight. I can either pay up and keep listening, stop listening, or create another account with a different email address and share my pre-built stations with my new account.
Has anyone faced this situation before...just wondering if they track IP addresses or anything like that...?

Time isn't counted against you when you use the iPhone app.

Don't know but if you have DSL just unplug your modem and voila new ip or surf through a proxy if you somehow get denied.

There is a limit? I listen all the time and have never had any kind of shutdown.  Where does it show how many hours?

Click on the "account" button along the top next to the "sign out" button. There should be a drop down window that contains a bar showing the number of hours remaining for the month.



I'm down to 1 hour...I'm just going to try signing up for another account with an old Yahoo! address I use for junk mail. Hopefully that works.

We hit the max every month.  $.99 keeps you going.  Our profile is very well trained and we listen to it every single night.

It's better than a CD jukebox set on random.

You got that right!  My iPod has 15,000+ songs on it and Pandora still kicks it right in the jaw.

I hit up last.fm when my pandora time runs out. Once my new room is done and I can use my klipsch stuff again I'm going to pony up the $30 and get the yearly upgrade for the better quality.

Same thing just happened to me - hit the 40 hour mark.

However, I manned up and paid the $36 for the year.

I like pandora a lot and I think its cheap at half the price.
