I am a huge fan and daily listener of the Pandora Radio web service. However, I must admit that I find their current flash based radio
player to be too heavy for my needs and being a heavy web user, I prefer to have Pandora running in it its
own application window. Finding no free application available that fulfills this need, I decided to pursue writing a quick and, simple
desktop application to access the pandora service.
At the moment, this application implements most of the
useful functionality found in the Pandora radio web player and the current version now includes the ability
to play, skip, save and rate songs.
On the rare occasion that you experience playback issues, you can reload the player by selecting Reload Pandora from the menu.
Pandora Desktop Client requires the Java runtime to be installed and it runs on Mac OS X, Linux and Windows.
Get Pandora Desktop Client for Windows XP / Vista / 7 , Mac OS X 10.4+ or
Linux . FYI On Linux you will need to open the application by
running
"java -jar PandoraDesktopClientv1.0.jar" from the terminal.
In case, it is not obvious, this application is in no way affiliated or related to Pandora
