Pandora not available in the UK

I started using Pandora in April 2006 and it quickly became the only way I listened to music at home. It simply matches my approach music: I tend to get bored of tracks fairly quickly and need to renew my list of favorites very often. Also my tastes are not too mainstream. The Find similar or bin it model of Pandora is perfect for me: I built a collection of genres (electronic, heavy metal, dark ages...) and keep switching from one to the other depending on the mental state I want to be in. I discovered artists I never heard of before: KMFDM, Pro-Pain, Darkwell, Leave's Eyes, Kill Hannah, Nightwish, Theatre of Tragedy, Elis, Lacuna Coil... I even ended up buying the CDs of those I wanted to listen in loop. Unfortunately, because of licensing issues the service will very soon stop in the UK...
