Sonos, whose multi-room digital audio system I am about ito install in my home, is now compatible with Pandora. Pandora, the Music Genome Project’s trainable Internet radio service, which until now worked only from a browser-based Flash application and the Slim Device/Logitech Squeezebox and Transporter devices, can now be dialed up sans PC, in any room in your home. And unlike the Slim Device implementation, Sonos’ interface to the service allows you to rate songs and create new “stations.”
I had picked Sonos before it had this capability (but after it added support for WMA-protected tracks and for the entire Rhapsody service, including streaming content). So this will just be a wonderful bonus.
