I have tried Pandora and even paid a monthly subscription, but Pandora does not play original uncensored recordings despite the fact that I turned on explicit content.

However, Slacker Radio is better at this kind of service because it allows you to listen to original recordings that are not censored and it has better quality audio. Like Pandora, Slacker Radio allows you to create custom radio stations with the ability to tell the station that you either like the current playing song or that you never want to play the current playing song again. Slacker Radio is the answer to Pandora’s increasingly bad service. Now I get to start doing some research again into switching music apps. I wouldn’t have been terribly upset if they increased their rate $1-2 per month with notice but to jump $6 a month? No way. I find myself a bit distrustful of the way they went about it. $4 a month was the perfect sweet spot for what I got, but I don’t think it’s worth $10 per month. Really? It’s worse that I wasn’t even given a warning or a quick email/notification. What? I did a bit of digging and realized that the Plus subscription has removed offline listening from its list of perks. Today I go to listen to my offline playlist as usual and was given a notification that I would have to upgrade to a Premium subscription to enjoy offline listening. It wasn’t uncommon to have minor issues with the app, but those were mostly just mildly annoying and often times addressed in the next update. I finally found Slacker, 3.99 a month for Plus subscription, featuring unlimited skips, no ads, and the BEST thing was offline listening for work travel or when reception was poor. I was tired of listening to the same old things, the price just to remove ads, and those limited skips. Like many, I left Pandora a few years ago in search of something better.
