This is typical of what you'd find in competing streaming music services. For instance, our "Prince" search caused Pandora to display results that included albums, songs, an artist page, and a Prince-based station. You begin your musical journey by browsing Pandora's many categories, or typing the name of an artist or song into the search box. Pandora also offers discounted Premium plans for students ($4.99 per month), active military members and vets ($7.99 per month), and families ($14.99 per month, for six people).

The fact that the playlist creation feature is locked behind Pandora's priciest tier is highly disappointing. Pandora's highest-level plan, Premium, costs $9.99 per month, and adds playlist creation and sharing to Pandora Plus' feature set. The $4.99-per-month Pandora Plus is a more traditional plan that builds on the free tier by adding ad-free personalized stations, unlimited skips, and offline listening. This is done with a simple mouse click, or button prompt on phone apps, but it feels unnecessarily obtuse considering most other services just play the ad by default rather than asking you about it first. In order to hear Wu-Tang Clan’s Top Songs playlist, we had to redeem a temporary Premium account and watch a video ad to enjoy some uninterrupted music. With that said, Pandora makes you jump through a few hoops before you can enjoy your free music. Since 1982, PCMag has tested and rated thousands of products to help you make better buying decisions.
