Re: [slim] Pandora 192kbps on Squeezebox: Any hope in sight?
Snarly is correct but, while paying (aka the Pandora One account) does not get us Squeezies the 192k stream, it does eliminate the limitations on how many hours you can play Pandora per month, elminates the ads, and allows for 5 hrs of uninterrupted playing w/out interaction. For me the small monthly cost was worth it just to get rid of the ads Keep those cards and letters going to Pandora...I'm ever hopeful that if we keep pestering them that, eventually, they'll redo that API for us. snarlydwarf;529890 Wrote: You can get 192k by paying... but only for the web based player, not for the SqueezeBox.

Wish I had an answer. Please send a request to Pandora, the more people who ask, the more likely we are to get it. -- andyg andyg's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3292 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=76734 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Had accidentally left off the pandora- last time never got a response so trying again :D *** Just got their response: Currently all in-home device receive 128k MP3 audio. Mobile devices receive a variety of different rates depending on the on capability of the device and the network they are on, but never hinger than 64k AC+. Pandora on the web or desktop app plays 64k AAC+ for free listeners and 192k for PandoraOne subscribers. We're a small company and we simply don't have the resources to do everything we'd like to do all at once. Someday we will re-engineer the Pandora API so in-home devices like yours can receive higher bit-rate audio. Thanks for your patience. Best Regards, Josh Pandora Listener Support As I see it the selection is the draw. The others on your channel(s) are great. It seems you can get 192K by paying. If that's not available let's all pitch-in on your effort.

Any charges for better would seem to be a matter of negotiation between Cisco and Pandora. Did you see that tube amp the Pandora dude has? I need some of that and some Watt Puppy's.
