Seriously bothered by this. Playing Pandora at a retail business and constanly being bombarded with erectile dysfunction ads with customers standing at the counter. Stop it please.

Hi there, @carmelmusic!

I moved your post to the Subscriptions board to keep the community organized.

It sounds like you're using Pandora to play music in a public setting (which is not considered personal use).

If so, we have a solution for you. Pandora is available and optimized for use in settings like these through Mood Media, with features like unlimited listening, no advertising, and a media player that can connect to your existing sound system. 

Additionally, due to the terms of our music licenses, the consumer version of the Pandora service (including Pandora Plus and Pandora Premium) cannot legally be used to play music in a commercial or public setting. Any Pandora listening that isn't personal and private, even for non-profit or tax exempt organizations, must be properly licensed through Mood Media, which fairly compensates artists, authors, composers, publishers and other rightsholders.

Use of Pandora in these settings is available only via hardware sold by Mood Media.

To learn more or sign up, click here.

You can also find our more details about using Pandora for your business here.

It's been happening a lot this year to us, a retail establishment. Not good.
