"I have got a new Sonos Speaker, I am looking for the way to stream Pandora songs on my new Sonos Speakers, please advise me."
Pandora and Sonos joined forces to provide music enthusiasts with an elevated level of access and control over their music in 2017. By utilizing the Pandora mobile app, users were empowered to directly manage and enjoy their music on Sonos systems. Additionally, the integration of Alexa voice commands enabled effortless control of Pandora stations through Sonos. Whether you're hosting a gathering in the living room, cooking up a storm in the kitchen, or starting your day with music in the bedroom, Pandora and Sonos seamlessly collaborate to deliver a captivating and immersive in-home music experience.
Regardless of your Pandora subscription level, including the free tier, you can now enjoy this innovative listening experience. To simplify the process of connecting Pandora to Sonos, this article presents two effective ways on how to play Pandora on Sonos.
CONTENTS
Pandora offers three distinct subscription plans to cater to its listeners: Pandora Free, Pandora Plus ($4.99/month), and Pandora Premium ($9.99/month). Free users can access songs and stations supported by ads, while paid subscribers enjoy ad-free tracks and the ability to listen offline. Before initiating Pandora playback on Sonos, it is necessary to prepare your Sonos speaker for adding music from Pandora. The following section outlines the complete process of adding Pandora to Sonos.
For mobile devices (iOS or Android):
Step 1. Open the Sonos Controller app on your mobile device.
Step 2. Tap the menu and scroll down to find "Add Music Services."
Step 3. Select Pandora from the list of available services.
Step 4. Follow the on-screen instructions to log in and add your Pandora account.
Step 5. After successfully adding your account, the Pandora music service will be displayed in your Sonos Controller.
For computers (Mac or PC):
Step 1. Open the Sonos desktop app on your computer.
Step 2. In the "Select a Music Source" section, choose "Add Music Services."
Step 3. Select Pandora from the list of available services.
Step 4. Follow the on-screen instructions to log in and add your Pandora account.
Step 5. Once your account is successfully added, the Pandora music service will be visible in your Sonos Controller.
Sonos, the wireless home sound system, includes a built-in storage capacity that can accommodate up to 65,000 songs. This feature allows users to import their personal music libraries from their computers or network-connected storage drives directly into the Sonos speaker. However, due to DRM protection, Pandora does not offer any direct downloading services to its users. This leads to the question: Is it possible to download Pandora music for offline listening?
The answer is yes, and this is where UkeySoft Pandora Music Converter comes into play. UkeySoft is a professional audio conversion tool that enables you to download music from Pandora onto your computer and convert it to popular formats such as MP3, M4A, AAC, FLAC, WAV, and AIFF without compromising audio quality. With the converted songs, you can seamlessly add them to your Sonos speaker without any limitations. Additionally, the program features an built-in Pandora web player that allows you to seamlessly search, browse, download, and play music all within a single platform. This eliminates the necessity of installing the Pandora music app separately.
