I did not update to the last Pandora update since it instituted a limited time you could play before it would turn off. Then Tom let me know that Pandora released version 1.1.3 which states that there is “No more 8 hour session limit” in the change log. Score! THe application also starts up faster and fixed volume issues.
You can find the update at www.pandora.com or read the change log below.
New Features
- Support for account upgrades to Pandora One via the mobile device
- Faster startup time, especially for listeners with lots of stations. One test with 100 stations showed startup time going from 14.25 seconds down to 8.2 seconds.
- Station list sort order is now saved
Bug Fixes
- Fixed volume-change issues triggered by some third-party apps, such as Vlingo
- No more 8-hour session limit
- Tour popup menus sometimes would act strangely
- Various other minor fixes

What? To be clear, so this 1.1.3 version is safe to upgrade to? No time limit?

Honestly have not played music long enough to test it but that is what it says in the change log…
