Pandora
The massively popular smart-radio music streaming service Pandora is now available on Android and the myTouch. Pandora allows you to build playlists and “smart” radio streams based on your music tastes. You can teach the service about your tastes using the thumbs-up and thumbs-down buttons available on the player. The app then tries to line up more songs that have similar characteristics to the ones you likes. This myTouch app also comes with a home screen widget that lets you play with the controls without needing to keep relaunching the application. Of course, you can keep the app running in the background even as you work on other applications on your smartphone.Â
 
The preferences pane allows you to set your preferred audio quality based on whether or not you’re on a good network. Buffering is smart and playback is stutter free even on slower WiFi channels. You can share and buy songs through the menu as well. It’s easy to create a new radio station based on a songs name, album, or artist. Note that Pandora doesn’t actually let you listen to a specific song by a specific artist whenever you want – you can only listen to similar songs in an intelligently created radio stream. This is similar to what Last.FM offers. The Pandora app on the myTouch is a high-quality smart-radio application that brings your music tastes right to your smartphone.

I love this app. I actually use a FM transmitter with a charge and listen adapter from HTC and listen to Pandora in the car instead of the radio. The transmitter was $30 at radio shack. Its not the greastest of sound quality at times but overall a great buy and great use of the app.
do u know how to get rid of the thing when it says it is getting problems
Pandora rocks. I use it around the house when I’m working and my phone and Pandora simply plays all the music I like/want.
