With Pandora premium can I download music to my computer and make copies for my car?

Hi @Rileyjop! Thanks for posting. 

Pandora Premium allows subscribers to listen to specific songs, albums, playlists, and certain content offline from your mobile device, but you won't be able to make copies for your car. 

At this time, all Pandora automotive implementations require you to use a compatible iPhone or Android with an active internet connection in order to stream music in the car.*

If you'd prefer to download music for your personal collection, we recommend buying it from an online music store or authorized retailer. 

If you have a smartphone, I'm more than happy to help get you set up in your car. Could you tell me:

1. What is the make and model of your phone?
2. What make, model and year is your automobile?
3. If you have an aftermarket stereo (non-OEM), can you provide me the brand and model number?
4. Is your vehicle equipped with Android Auto or Apple CarPlay?

Pandora shows "free" in my car but I cannot connect. Any suggestions?

2. Are you using the stock stereo or an aftermarket stereo?
   1. If it's an aftermarket stereo, what is the make and model of that device?
3. What is the make and model of your phone? Also, can you tell me the Pandora app version (let me know if you need help finding that)?
4. How is your smartphone connected to your car? (Bluetooth, USB, Aux)
5. When you say "Pandora shows "free" in my car" doe this appear in the vehicles head unit?
