Pandora Celebrates 10 Years with Zero Ads September 9th

Pandora, the popular streaming music service available virtually everywhere, is celebrating its 10^th birthday on this Wednesday September 9^th. Which, coincidentally is the day Apple is holding its event for new iPhones, Apple TV, and other devices.

Pandora Turns 10: Ad-free Music All Day

To celebrate being in business for 10 years, Pandora is offering all of its free users a complete day of ad-free listening in the U.S.

Pandora is one of the first to start the streaming music revolution which made room for other services like Spotify and Rdio. It’s also a model that big companies are trying to emulate with their music services like Apple Music, Amazon’s Prime Music, Microsoft’s Groove Music, and others.

According to the Pandora blog:

Our offices are just a bit too small to accommodate the nearly 80 million of you who tune in each month for an in-person party, so we decided to make September 9 Listener Love Day. What is this day you ask? Simply put, it is our gift to you. It’s a day of all music and zero ads as a thank you for listening and thumbing over the past decade.

The ad-free streaming starts on September 9^th from 12am to 12am EST. This is nothing new if you’re a Pandora One subscriber, which offers ad-free streaming, more skips, and other benefits for ($4.99/month or $54.89/year).

But if you’re one of the users who have been listening to Pandora for years, diligently crafting your perfect stations, you’ll enjoy an ad-free day.
