Thumbs up Free Pandora now limited to 40 hours a month.

Pandora has just announced that non-subscribers will me limited to 40 hours of music per month. Anyone know if that limit applies to streaming Pandora through the Enform app?

I would say yes since your pandora account is connected with enform.

I like using Pandora for the variety and no commercials. BTW ... there are hacks out there that let you skip all commercials and removes the max number of track skips.

I don't get commercials when I listen through the App Suite, even though I don't have a premium subscription and thus do get commercials on my laptop, iPad, or iPod. Since the App Suite is a subscription service, Pandora may get subsidies from that, so it's possible we might not have that limit in our cars. I guess we'll find out in the coming months.

Unfortunately, we stil have to deal with max number of track skips without the Pandora hack.

iPhone 5 + jailbreak + pandora downloaded / ultimate skip + bluetooth = pure win . I'd also like to mention that the Steering-wheel controls can be used to skip songs just as you would with your playlist streaming over Bluetooth. IMO 10x better than the shietty enform app

Panora dropped the previous limit in September, 2011. They are reinstating it.
