@That dude certainly the batch program can be edited to delete only the necessary files. I haven’t updated it for Windows 7 or vista, but surely, that can be added as well. Thanks for the suggestion.

I gotta say two things. Your batch file deletes all files in the directories, and #SharedObjects is where the save games for flash games are saved. That means that all those save games are wiped out.

Secondly, a much easier way to do this is just to remember what stations you listen to, by using a note making application on a phone or computer, or simply be one of the people who make new stations on a whim, and then use private browsing.

Pandora’s 40 hour limit is an artificial imposition by the music licensers. It was implemented by them to prevent people from supplanting their music libraries with Pandora. Pandora on the other hand makes all of their money from those advertisements, and it is in their best interest for you to listen to as many of them as possible… So, if you want to support companies like Pandora and prevent them from going bankrupt, bypass the 40 hour limit. If you don’t believe me look through the Pandora FAQs.

Quest, thank you for letting me know what you think.

Anyone else want to chime in on this very popular topic?

Pandora is paying royalty money every time you listen to a song. When you bypass their 40 hour limit, you either place Pandora that much closer to bankruptcy or foist your bill on one of the actual paying subscribers.

Also, you’re “not paying money for any kind of internet service.” What? So a service over the internet doesn’t cost the providers anything, huh?
