AT&T launches personalized radio from Pandora

May 19, 2023 By Dennis Bouchand Leave a Comment

att1.pngAT&T Inc. announced that Pandora is now available on select wireless phones from AT&T. With Pandora, AT&T’s wireless customers can discover new music, listen to their favorite artists and create their own personalized radio stations on their handsets.

Pandora makes listening to favorite music and discovering new music simple and fun. Users just type in a song or artist that they like, and, within seconds, Pandora delivers a personalized radio station over the air to wireless customers’ handsets with songs that fit the same sound and style. The songs are selected based on the Music Genome Project, Pandora’s innovative system that uses highly trained musicians to analyze music one song at a time. These musicians identify hundreds of different musical qualities of each recording, including melody, harmony, rhythm, instrumentation, arrangement, lyrics and vocals. Using this analysis, the listener’s personalized radio stations are created. Listeners can then rate the songs that they hear with a simple “thumbs up” or “thumbs down” to further refine the stations’ playlist to their tastes.

Pandora on AT&T phones is integrated seamlessly with the online version of Pandora. Subscribers will receive customized streaming radio stations delivered to them on both their mobile handsets and on the Pandora Web site via a universal account. With the ability to customize radio stations on their phone as well as on their PC, users will receive a very personalized radio experience that fits their individual needs. Up to 100 stations can be saved in a user’s account, and those stations can be enjoyed anywhere within AT&T’s extensive 3G network.

att.pngAT&T Inc. announced a new international plan that gives iPhone users 50mb of data per month to browse the web, check e-mail and access other information in more than 29 countries, including Canada, China, Mexico and in areas throughout Europe and Asia.

The new Data Global Plan is available to iPhone customers for $59.99 a month, which is in addition to the domestic voice and data iPhone plan they purchase during iPhone activation. The Data Global Plan enables international voice and data roaming, as well as international long distance dialing from the United States at standard rates.

The plan requires customers to first purchase a domestic voice and data plan for the iPhone and is not available as a stand-alone offer. Normal eligibility requirements for international plans apply. Should customers exceed the 50MB bucket in the 29 countries where the plan applies, they will pay $.005/KB. Outside those countries, consumers will simply pay for their data usage by the kilobyte, at rates starting as low as $.010/KB.

AT&T also offers a 20mb Data Global Plan for iPhone customers for $24.99 a month. The 20mb bucket applies to usage within the same 29 countries, with overage rated at $.005/KB. Outside the 29 designated countries, the data usage rate is $.0195/KB.

Travelers can visit www.att.com/wirelessinternational to see whether service is available in the countries to which they are going.
