Do you prefer a curated playlist, or the surprise of stations?

Let us know your preference. 🎶 🔀

I think I would go with stations. I like to groom my stations into what I want them to be and then I listen to it non-stop.

I am a creature of habit, and tend to listen to a lot of the same songs over and over again.

However, I think I will do a better job of listening to my stations as you mentioned @RagnerTheHiker. I always find a lot of new music that way. 🎶

@Pandora, I love my created playlists. I have a playlist for work, for reading (several actually), and a kick-back-and-rewind playlist. Plus, my overall favorite, which just surpassed the 2000-song mark. I also have 249 stations that I have collected, and I love playing them on shuffle mode. So I have said all of that just to say I love both... Lol...😂😂😂.

Take care, and GOD bless.

I love Pandora modes.

I have similar stations that I listen to in different modes or the ones that I like to listen on any mood that I change while I listen. I hate having to make a playlist myself.

I do have some playlists I have created or that have been shared with me that I like to listen but in general I don't like searching for specific songs or seeing were they fit. I also prefer variety instead of having the same songs all the time.

I listen to all my stations non-stop. Endless music that I like not on repeat is great.
