Now carry millions of iPhone iTunes radio and its owner, does this mean that you should delete Pandora? Not so fast, I said.
Apple's new music service, this is the new iPhone and iOS update free, lack some magic, help Pandora Internet radio station to be leaders. Give priority to, it doesn't have intelligent, Pandora has received billions who gave a "thumbs up" or "thumbs down" a song of interaction with the audience.
Provide an Internet radio service - in other words, according to the genre, song or the artist's random playlists - more difficult than it seems. With iTunes stations play a few days, I found that the application often misjudged my taste, I ran out to skip more than once. (you can skip a song only 6 times, each station Pandora as per hour).
This may be my own fault: iTunes station needs a big harvest on, from your song to collect clues, what I do, oneself is mostly a patchwork of, do not reflect my preference of gifts such as song. That is to say, I find iTunes radio songs more than hit.
For example, when I create a custom stand Adele, on the basis of not hear, but the fast pace of tunes sang a huge range, I got a lot, I think paste folk rock over and over again. I love Bruno Mars, but I don't want to hear "the moon" Adele radio conversation. It ignores my tap water "never play this song", because it is repeated after three songs. ITunes music radio also play artists, for me, there are few parallels between Adele: kelly clarkson, beyonce, Jennifer Hudson and maroon 5.
Adele in Pandora radio, I got my closely associated with Adele, including Kate Nash, fee, norah Jones, a history of bud Gina specter of artists. But then again, I have been given the "thumbs up" in the previous session three Pandora DiYiQi song play, make an application to know, I like them. This suggests that have invested on Pandora, I should not be wasted.
At the same time, Pandora, let you see the lyrics and the artist's biography. Also lists some hundreds of music quality, each piece of music such as "loud" and "key tone." This helps explain why think it is similar to other songs Pandora in the station.
ITunes radio songs, record companies, third-party metadata services like GRACENOTE imposed licensing restrictions and apple's own editors' choice to use input. However, this does not mean you lyrics, the BIOS or explain why choose a song.

Appreciate the iTunes radio there is a reason, but.
UBIQUITY
ITunes radio iOS 7 new control center to get a first-class treatment. This a handy feature, can be accessed through the credit card no matter where, you are in the device at the bottom of the screen. It also appears in the lock screen. As a typical media control, such as play/pause and volume and skip, iTunes radio and increase the "back" button is often a star. Pop up a separate menu, where you can click on "play more like this", "never play this song," or "add to iTunes wish list", allows you to fine-tune your site while doing other things, such as playing poker "of" company.
Swipe down, or press the home key, let you back what you are doing.
In the control center, Pandora has a back button won't do anything, you can not go back to Pandora's thumb up or down the application itself.
EASY to buy
ITunes radio makes it easy to buy your favorite songs from the ITunes. If your application, the top right corner of a box shows the price of the song. Light twice. You might also need to input the iTunes passwords.
This application lets you hear a running history. Remind you that what you heard, also has the ability to buy, you can get a preview of the 90 seconds. A separate label shows you specially added to your wish list.
Pandora is a history, but not songs preview. Through iTunes song need several tap radio than iTunes. This is slightly harder to get back after buying Pandora, by double click the home button, select the display of the scope of application.
Fewer ads
ITunes radio advertising decreased significantly than Pandora, have an independent graphical ads. Most ads featured artists or album, you can purchase on iTunes someone said in a neutral voice, sometimes accompanied by graphics or photos. I think apple has just started selling advertising, products and services would quickly outside of music.
By comparison, Pandora with advertising. If you are looking for in an application, the bottom of the screen are almost always was full of ads, you can get rid of a small "X". I have seen the video ads and hear the audio. As a traditional radio program in a particular and audio ads can be jarring.
Either way, you can pay all ads - apple's iTunes match service $25 years or Pandora's $36 - A year's subscription.
So?
