@chulohock one thing to keep in mind is on the google play store all services with the exception of youtube music (since its owned by google) pay up to 30% to google. in comparison youtube music on the google play store or apple music on the App store have up to a 30% bonus on revenues out the gate. Its really the people who subscribe via the individual services websites and the like that are keeping the lights on.

Thank you. one thing to note is i likely haven't heard these songs since i canceled and re-subscribed to premium. since i have no way of knowing when they changed i cant really narrow it down but maybe that would have something to do with it?

im not quite sure if this is related or not but sorta seems to. recently on one of my playlists 2 songs have changed.
https://www.pandora.com/playlist/PL:844425029316442:128926781
Far Away (Josh's Big Room Remix) by Basshunter has been updated to the original versions
Am I Dreaming by Kat Deluna has changed to the remix ft akon
I have the correct versions at the bottom of the list. Ill give it a bit then delete the wrong ones and swap them over.
Oh and Fever by Vybz Kartel swapped to the clean version. When i go to the album its pretty weird. It has duplicates of several songs one edited and one explicit
Moderator Edit: Edited title for clarity

sadly its true but man id still love to have it. got a few stations that are really similar but trying to keep them still "separate" without this is much more of a challenge than it needs to be IMO

Hello, I have a direct billed subscription with Pandora and the reoccurring date I'm billed isnt ideal. Is there a way to change the date without cancelling and re-subscribing?

i totally agree they should. but money is the main reason they haven't done it yet i'd guess. i did forget the logistics of upgrading the entire library is probably a pain as well but idk how thats all setup on their end

im not from pandora but if i had to guess the only obstacle is cost. seeing as much of this music is streamed not downloaded for offline listening the company has to be mindful of everyone's ability to continue using their service. thus an increase in quality would "require" an update to their software to change the current bitrate to medium and the new higher bitrate as high quality. or leave the current as high and make a very high or whatever. probably not super hard to do but that will have a cost. a secondary expense is going to be servers that house the music. If they have the data in house on a single server location in one spot in the world that is at 80% 80% whatever capacity going to a higher bit rate would require likely double if not more equipment to handle the new load. If they have multiple in house servers they would have to double the equipment in all of them to offer the increased bitrate worldwide. If they are instead in a cloud based setup they wouldn't have to buy physicals hardware but instead pay for additional capacity from their cloud based partner. Lastly regarding improving audio quality the answer is yes sort of.... Assuming the bit rate is the only limiting factor on audio quality. The main factor on sound in all reality is going to be speakers. if you are listening on your tiny smartphone speaker regardless of bit rate its going to sound bad because of the speaker. same with any sort of slim device such as TVs, low quality earbuds etc and while not as bad but somewhat any smaller speaker setups like amazon echo, midrange headphones or high end earbuds will have their limits as well. Assuming speakers aren't the problem you can also have compression on your source and or internet connection. Bluetooth for example has limits on how much data can be processed depending on the source unit as well as the bluetooth version of the audio device. so playing CD quality wont matter if the transmission source cant handle that data and thus compresses to a lower quality bitrate anyway. in the US since net neutrality was abolished ISP's can and do put caps on data transmissions. i have none done research on if audio is impacted but for example im on an unlimited plan from verizon and have limits on video quality. so depending on if theres network congestion or if we have reached a threshold of data per month or if someone at verizon is having a bad day that quality can be limited by the ISP even if the source has higher quality available. again not sure if this comes into play but it legally could.
