Background: I'm trying to decide whether to buy a Logitech Smart Radio or a Grace Digital Mondo. Logitech seems like they may be discontinuing the Smart Radio (I don't find it advertised in the Products section of their music website , though there is support information for it) which would push me towards the Mondo. But the Mondo does not support Spotify. The Mondo does offer Pandora, but I understand that Pandora's library is less than a tenth the size of Spotify's . I'm surprised that this doesn't come up more often when people are talking about Pandora. Are the missing songs all obscure? If I switch to Pandora, are there some popular songs that I will just never hear? That sounds like a crippling problem.

 

EDIT: I should add that the reason I prefer these streaming services to a normal internet radio station is the ability to skip a song I don't like.

Best answer is to try the various services and see it they fit your needs. Pandora is fine for me, it has lots of off beat and obscure music that I never would have found otherwise. I know you can pay month to month on Pandora, I think you can with spotify. Personally, the reason I use Pandora is to avoid popular music - it's there on Pandora I just quickly thumbs down it so I never have to hear it again.
