Wow. Down 17%.

Earnings missed and guidance looks funky.

I think they provide a hell of a service and active listeners actually great for the first time in 12 quarters.

It hurts today but Im staying long.

I'm not telling anyone to try and catch a falling knife. So not necessarily.

There's just too many options for that service IMO. Pandora doesn't really have an advantage over others. Everyone I know uses Spotify.

I am similar to a lot of my friends that switched from Pandora to Spotify. Pandora keeps playing the same songs over during the period of a day and it got old. Spotify seems to have an endless amount of music and I can go 3 weeks without hearing the same song. Playlists are what have be a spotify user.

They have several advantages over others. The genre classification and pricing in general crush Spotify. What does is cost per month for premium Spotify? $10/mo? Pandora One is less than half that.

To take a step back... Spotify isn't the issue with Pandora. They aren't losing listeners. This is a monetization issue that, hopefully, management will work out.

I definitely don't see Pandora as a good investment. I expect Amazon music player to eventually be really good along with spotify which is already great.

I agree and to add everyone I know also uses Apple Radio, ITunes and YouTube for music. Pandora should have sold itself a good bit ago. IMO.

Pandora is the best at curated radio stations and stuff.

Only problem is, like someone alluded to, they have a limited song selection compared to say Spotify, can't play specific music like Spotify and don't have the ability to skip around in songs.
