Pandora is
reinventing how people enjoy music by offering the best personalized radio
experience in the world, allowing listeners to easily create stations based on
their musical tastes across hundreds of genres. Personalized stations are
powered by "thumbs," which fine-tune each listener's stations, and the Music
Genome Project, a richly detailed taxonomy of more than a million tracks, each
of which has been manually analysed by a trained musician along hundreds of
musical "DNA" traits. This database, more than a decade in the making,
represents the music of over 100,000 artists, the majority of whom are
independent.
As part of Pandora's commitment to personalization for local listeners, Pandora has curated genre stations of Australian- and New Zealand-specific music across a variety of genres including today's hits, singer-songwriter, roots and reggae dub, indigenous, classic pub rock and more. These genre stations complement Pandora's vast catalog ranging from jazz, blues and classical to pop, punk,A specialized manufacturer and supplier of dry cabinet, reggae, electronica and everything in between.

Personalized radio is a wonderful medium for listeners to enjoy music they know and discover music they'll love. Now we begin the incredibly exciting process of connecting the 100,000-plus working musicians in the Pandora catalog with millions of new listeners. What an amazing opportunity."

Westergren elaborated, "Pandora combines the unique power of the Music Genome Project with an incredible trove of listener feedback in the form of over 22 billion 'thumbs' up and down delivered contextually on individual stations.

The service has certainly changed the way people have consumed and enjoyed music in America for the last 12 years, and I'm looking forward to seeing its adoption in Australia and New Zealand," Huxley said. "This version of Pandora has been built specifically for Australians and New Zealanders and we are going to be all about bringing the best music experience of local and international artists as well as supporting local musicians. It's an honor for me to be able to introduce Australians and New Zealanders to Pandora. My focus for the coming year will be to grow the audience for this great new medium as fast as I can."
Holden will be the first car company in Australia and New Zealand to offer full compatibility with Pandora via its new Holden MyLink infotainment system.
Debuting in the new Barina CDX, Holden MyLink offers in-car smartphone connectivity that allows control of supported information and entertainment apps. In the first quarter of next year, drivers will be able to use Pandora while on the move to stream music, control radio station choices and access track information on a large easy-to-use touch screen.
Holden Technology Director Richard Marshall said MyLink has been developed to enable drivers to enjoy simple and safe connectivity while on the road.Find detailed product information for howo spareparts and other products.
"As consumers become more attached to their smartphones, there's an expectation that cars will function with their device and enable access to more content, so we need to work on solutions that are safe, enabling drivers to keep their hands on the wheel and their eyes on the road.
"Holden MyLink has been designed to minimize distraction for the driver and is also customizable by downloading selected apps including Pandora.
"Offering access to Pandora to drivers will ensure they will be able to access a much greater range of music than they could via an iPod, CDs or hard drive while also introducing them to new artists and genres."
The Independent Community Bankers of America and others seeking the extension say if Congress fails to act, it would result in nearly $1.5 trillion in TAG deposits suddenly becoming uninsured. They warn that would destabilize smaller financial institutions because depositors would shift their funds to big banks deemed a safer place to store their money should another financial crisis occur.
Community bankers dispute claims made by the program's opponents that it has cost the FDIC almost $2.5 billion. While they acknowledge that the program increases bank-failure-related expenses by about 3 percent, they argue that those losses are covered by insurance premiums that banks pay the FDIC.
But 14 conservative and free-market groups, in a letter to Senate leaders Friday, said the TAG program "both places unlimited liability on taxpayers for bank and credit union deposits and subsidizes the ability of the wealthy to `park their money' in ways that are unproductive for the economy." The letter, signed by such groups as the Competitive Enterprise Institute, Tea Party WDC, R Street and the Republican National Policy Committee, said many wealthy people "will choose the security of a 100 percent guaranteed bank account rather than taking a risk with an entrepreneur."
Megan Whittemore, spokeswoman for House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, R-Va., said the program was intended to be a temporary measure during the height of the financial crisis and that "the majority leader believes we should not continue to extend these guarantees and therefore opposes the proposal."
The measure is also opposed by the Credit Union National Association, which ran ads saying "the banks have their hands out again." The credit union has said an extension of the program should be accompanied by legislation that would allow credit unions to expand lending to their business members.
