Posted by Kromey at 5:51pm Sep 24 '10I love Linux.
I love Pandora.
I hate the CPU-hogging Flash-based Pandora client, especially on Linux.
Now I've found the solution: A native Linux Pandora client written entirely in Python that integrates beautifully with the GNOME desktop environment, including system notifications every time the song changes, and a notification area icon so I can control it while its window is closed.
But the neatest feature? It works seamlessly with my keyboard's media controls, even when its window is closed or lacks focus!!
I dunno how many Linux-using Pandora listeners there are here, but thought I'd share for those that do exist.
