Pandora Update Makes Background Play Better
Wow… That’s all I say is wow to the update for Pandora. They didn’t do much to the look and feel of Pandora, but what they did was make Pandora use much less RAM.
This is a great thing because, before you couldn’t minimize (with the free jailbroken app Backgrounder) Pandora without it crashing (closing) when you try to do anything else, like open Safari. But they’ve made Pandora much lighter on CPU and RAM. Right now I’m writing this post from the free, sexy WordPress app while I got Pandora playin’ in the background. So nice…
See, before this update, if I tried to run WordPress while Pandora was running in the background, one of two things would happen; either Pandora would stop a few seconds after WordPress was open, or the system would be so slow, such as typing, that you’d be forced to just go out and close Pandora so you could get work done.
I remember bein’ at work, listening to Pandora, and I would need to access the calculator or calander for a sec. I’d minimize Pandora and it couldn’t even run in the background to open the calculator or something. But now it’s so much better becase Pandora’s lighter.
Peace, J
