What's to great about internet radio anyway? Just download the songs, you got a MP3 built right in. How bout an iTouch?
This is not how you discover new music or expand your horizons. Internet radio is fantastic, can't tell you how many great songs and artists I've found because of it, my musical taste would be so much more limited if I only listened to mp3s that I owned.
Well I cant lie, Ive used pandora for that same reason but I did that from my iTouch or PC. Why does he need it on a 3DS is what im asking.
I guess my response to that would then be, why does the 3DS then have Netflix? It doesn't have to, but it does, and its pretty freaking great that it does. Obviously the 3DS doesn't need Pandora, but why not? I mean it would obviously be a smart move and increase business even more for Pandora. It can't be used everywhere obviously because the 3DS doesn't have 3G or 4G, but heck if you're frequently in areas with wifi (which I am, at work included where I can listen to whatever I like) then such an app would be great for you, just as Netflix is.
As to the response of "Thats what friends are for." Yes, of course friends help one find new music, but come on, there have been plenty of times in life where I find new music before any of my friends do. You know the song We Are Young by Fun thats suddenly everywhere? I knew about that song on the day it was released way back in September. (However, I knew about fun not from internet radio, but because I was a fan of The Format years before, but the point still stands, internet radio can help you find new music before your friends do, or perhaps if any of your friends even will. there is no limit to how many great songs I would love to hear, so I really do embrace and support internet radio).
