GlobalPandora: The box is ope- er, broken.
Last Sunday we told you about a way for listeners outside of the US to tune in to Pandora without having to deal with proxies: GlobalPandora. We also predicted that it will get shut down - but who would have thought so soon? It looks like the real Pandora decided to block all the U.S. IPs that GlobalPandora was using.On the site, there's no hint that GlobalPandora is planning on making a comeback besides asking if anyone has "access to U.S. servers or U.S. shells." So unless there are some friendlies out there that will support GlobalPandora, the box will remain shut unless you mind setting up your own proxy.
And if you don't want to deal with a proxy, despite Pandora being as fascinating as it is, there is a nice selection of other online radio alternatives that might work for users outside of the U.S. - a number of which GlobalPandora has been good enough to list on it's "we're down" page.
Thanks Andrew!
