Description:

Pithos is a cross-platform desktop client for the personalized web radio Pandora, supporting all important features the official Flashâ„¢ client has.

Pithos was based on pianobar, a console client for Pandora. In addition to sporting a GTK+ GUI, Pithos has feature-parity with pianobar.

Out of concern for the longevity of Pandora Media Inc., the software authors would recommend subscribing to Pandora One.

Use of this application requires a Pandora account; one can be created for free at https://pandora.com.

rijnsma 3 years ago	1	For years the don't let me listen in the Netherlands. We're not allowed.........
ourbob1 3 years ago	5	What a great app! This is what I love about running linux. Community based software that understand what the user wants. No ads and I see the songs coming up and can skip them before I have to hear them
tom4jean 4 years ago	5	Perfect! Much better than Pandora's own app I use on my Kindlefire. No ads at all come through on Linux. It has a really nice Quick Pick setting where you pick any combination of your saved stations to play random songs from each. There is intigrated album art. And the best I saved for last it also integrates perfectly into the new "Soundbox" desklet on the Linux Mint 16 Cinnamon desktop so you have album art on the desktop desklet along with full control of the player. It does not get any better. Thanks!

jajodo 5 years ago	5	Sweet. Add ppa. sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kevin-mehall/pithos-daily, sudo apt-get update, sudo apt-get install pithos
EulogianiMascarpone 5 years ago	5	Soo, you definitely need to update this app via the ppa in order for it to work with Pandora's recent changes but once you do...oh boy! I get the higher quality mp3-hifi from Pandora One with more skips, plus some abilities I can't even get with their paid client, like seeing two or three tracks ahead and skipping right to them. F-ing awesome! And I USED TO PAY FOR THIS SERVICE! TITSorGTFO!
