Pandora shuts out world wide listeners

Performance rights issues take a new twist today as one of the more popular music listening sites capitulates to music biz interests.

Pandora To Shut Out Non-U.S. Users Thursday Evening
If you live outside of the U.S. and enjoy listening to customized radio stations on Pandora, brace yourself for some bad news. The site will be shutting you out starting Thursday evening.

It will be interetsing to see how this converts into good fortune for London based rival Last.fm who are rumoured to be heading for a lucrative takeover.

    Andy,
    Thanks for the post. Am in the US — my husband and I love Last.fm

    Cheers,
