also although the yahoo music radio doesnt work, the video station works with skyfire (only the commercials are a pain)

last.fm works fine with skyfire. Which makes me wonder why Pandora doesn't, since they seem so similar.

I actually like the selection on last.fm better than Pandora, although Pandora's interface looks a lot better. The sh!t Pandora picks out to play always pisses me off.

shoutcast also works nicely with GS player - I save my pls files in a separate folder for easy access

pandora is great. support it through purchases of songs by hitting the links when you find a song you like playing. it will be a big loss if pandora gets squashed by the MAN. it will be great to get it on the touch too.

The fact that pandora is taking so long to produce an app for us is so annoying that i just couldnt wait. on my skyfire i can play sounds from the net and there is a site that is just like pandora called jango.com. with that site you pretty much get pandora on your phone. works pretty nice but once the screen darks out the music stops. i heard that with slide to lock you can continue programs w/out the screen on but my one button on my touch is taken for full screen keyboard.

hope it works for all of you guys too

yeah that screen thing is true for whenever youre playing music. Even when i stream once the screen blanks the playback becomes choppy. Anyone seen a solution for this?
