I am not personally associated with Pandora in any way, but I mentioned their service here because I think it is rather revolutionary and particularly useful for music teachers. I suggest that you contact Pandora directly to see how they explain this change in accessibility. I would suspect there may be legal issues in terms of copyright that hinder their ability to make music files accessible outside the USA. Probably they would if they could, but have found they are not permitted to do so, but that is just a guess. I am not the right person to ask about this matter.Sociomusicologyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09408859984544549259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7347842593858847640.post-47746299208235752122008-09-12T12:08:00.000-07:002008-09-12T12:08:00.000-07:00I have used Pandora since it started in my country...I have used Pandora since it started in my country in Lebanon..Then, they decided that it wont be currently available outside the States.Pandora was really efficient to let be introduced to artists from all over the world.Even when i went to the states , the first thing i made on the web was opening pandora.com and accessed my account again..And now when i got back to my country, i really feel downcasted when they state for me , you cant access your account from your country. I thought the Genome Project was to diversify music and make it available but what happened is a kind of monopoly..I hope Pandora works for letting its webpage available world wide..isnt this the goal of any wwww??<BR/>Thanks for your concerns and i hope you take my concerns into considerations .<BR/>BRPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12444586047653448659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7347842593858847640.post-63687766287331780302008-03-10T15:34:00.000-07:002008-03-10T15:34:00.000-07:00Thanks David!
