I think it's using both Javascript and Flash... but you might want to take a look at page source. I made a copy.

dude sucks for non US

Though I don't listen as much lately as I don't have time at work I still love what it has shown me.

BTW anyone using firefox (or possiblly IE) I asked Pandora about a minimized link because I liked the small player, tech support emailed me this

javascript:void(window.open('http://www.pandora.com/?cmd=mini','Pandora','height=360,width=730,menubar=yes,toolbar=no,resizable=no,scrollbars=no,toolbar=no,status=no').moveTo(0,0));

and it works perfect, starts in a small window

pandora is awesome and i'll even say that I went as far as to write my congressmen to vote against that new online radio billing crap that was an issue a while back, I still haven't heard what happened about that but I can only assume the bill passed and screwed internet radio. oh well, pandora rules!

I love Pandora. I found out about all the bands I like today, except Nightwish, from there! I'm glad I'm in the US.

I dropped pandora when they told me it was a fee based situation. If I am going to have to pay for music I'll buy the album and listen to it as much as I want. Other than that I just listen to free broadcast stations.

Well if some of you are still listening to music on pandora and not having to pay for it well and good. The last time I was online with it it gave me a notification that if I wanted to listen to any more music I had to obtain a subscription with a monthly fee. I left the web site and have not gone back.

Give it or globalpandora (whenever it's back from technical maintenance) another try Mav, I never saw any subscription request like you describe back when I used it.
