Wow. I think I just found my alltime favorite way to steal music. This app has a great little interface, and having every song automatically recorded and added to itunes is genius.
Though, I don't see how this app can stay alive without Pandora suing them out of existence. Either that or the RIAA is going to use it as justification to take Pandora down.
Well, lets hope it stays under the radar. So, if you really like this app... DONT VOTE FOR IT ;-)
factoryjoe: legal in the same way that recording from on-air radio to cassette tapes was legal 15 years ago :)
Now I can make mixtapes of mp3s...
Other then that: this is just a briliant app that does everything the Pandora+Last.FM+iTunes user would want.
(Now we just need to have Pandora back in the UK)
Consider PandoraFM too:

It lets you do all of the Last.fm stuff (Love/Ban/etc.) to Pandora songs. Plus, it scrobbles at HALF the song (rather than the whole song). Oh, and it's a web interface, so it works on Windows too.
This adds some features that seem to be worth the payment. The recording and the Airport streaming are nice additions to something like PandoraBoy.
I love PandoraJam. I hope they add ability to send to multiple Airport Expresses.
I just stopped using PandoraMan for this app because of the Last.fm scrobbling.
This is pretty sweet. I've spent my shareware budget for this month already, but this makes pandora a really great service and its nice to be able to record songs, as well as have it open right next to itunes and have last.fm scrobbling built in.
Too bad Pandora is only available in the US now...
I dunno, I think [PandoraBoy] is a better deal. Recoding the streaming audio is cool though... (but legal?)
