Pandora is still about the easiest to use. I use an app called Pithos.
The git version is probably best. It's a GTK application that gives near
full access to your Pandora stations, and it should allow you to thumb
up and down as well.

Tim here. Have you tried "pianobar" as a command-line interface to
Pandora? For Spotify, there's "shpotify"
https://github.com/hnarayanan/shpotify
which isn't in my Debian repo, but might do what you need to listen
there.
I'm afraid I don't do much streaming music as I just have accrued a
Yes, I mean that I never attempt to run speakup in a gnome terminal
session and I have separate users for text and graphical use.

Sorry if this sounds like a weird question, but what do you mean by,
"2: I never try to use speakup and orca in the same session."? Do you
mean that during a period when you're using orca, you never use speakup
in a text terminal, and that when you're using speakup you do not use
the gui?
I had zero success with Pandora. I'm currently trying out Spodify's
web player but it's difficult to use and has no perceiveable volume
control. Either of these might have an accessible iPhone app but I
want to listen with headphones on my computer while I code.
What services do y'all use?
for what its worth, I use archLinux on all my systems, and I use orca with
gnome and gdm.
I have never had sound problems, and I use speakup as well.
I also have never disabled pulse.
I follow these simple rules:
1: I use one user specifically for graphical use.
2: I never try to use speakup
I replaced orca with orca-git and have no better performance.

I have gnome and gnome-extra on the system and removed mate and mate-extra
by now. I have managed to login with gnome and proved it by running
gnome-terminal then using the backspace key a few times until I heard
repeated beeps each time I hit the key. I ran speaker-test inside
I got things up to login and did that and got the screen-saver after that.
When I ran orca I had sighted assistance looking at the screen and orca
did not come up talking. It did show all of its settings on screen
though. As a result, I removed mate and mate-extra and orca and brltty
and
