    i've been listening to my Pandora for a year and a half without any commercials. It seems recently i've been getting a lot of commercial ads being played between almost every song now. Did something change with Entune that is causing this or is this being done by Pandora?

    "Without any commercials" means you either were or were incorrectly assumed to be a paying customer. Pandora has ads every couple songs and is extremely annoying. But that's how they fund the concept.

    This is why I have SiriusXM . The internet radio is awesome and I use it everywhere, no commercials. If you already have SiriusXM, adding the internet portion is very cheap.

    I pay $36 per year for Pandora. The whole family uses it, often at the same time in different vehicles.

    $36 for Pandora to get rid of the ads!?!? IM IN. :cool:

    I also have SiriusXm. Im kinda sorta maybe a pretty intense audiophile (y) I love Pandoras "Cake" (the artist, not the yummy diabetes causing dessert- although I do like that too) channel. But the ads kill my mood, man.
