Pandora Rolls Out Its Slick HTML5 Player To All Users (And No More 40-Hour Cap!)

pandoralogoPopular personalized radio service Pandora, which went public in June, has just announced that it's rolling out its overhauled, HTML5-based music player to everyone. The service has been testing the player since July, and it's a huge improvement over the old Flash-based experience. Everything looks much more modern, it's faster, and it's easier to use.The other big piece of the news: Pandora is removing the cap on how much music 'free' users can listen to every month. Historically Pandora has let users stream 40 hours of music a month, at which point they were prompted to upgrade to a premium 'Pandora One' account (which run $36 a year). Starting today, that cap is gone, so users can listen to as much as they'd like. There's still a significant incentive to upgrade though, as Pandora One users never have to deal with ads.
