Thanks all for your support and your votes! Now many more people will be able to listen to Pandora Radio without dealing with the resource-intensive flash!

@Ceevee - That is very interesting, I've never listened to pianobar that long straight. I have been extremely busy lately but eventually might be able to just leave pianobar running until the token expires and see what exactly pianobar "says" when it crashes out. I imagine what's happening is pianobar is dying, and thus pyPianobar is stuck in an infinite loop waiting on pianobar to return... something. If it's pianobar itself that sits at high usage, and not pyPianobar this actually sounds like a bug for the Pianobar application! I was going to redirect you over the PromyLOPh as I'm sure he'd want to know but there's Already a bug report on it! Thanks for reporting this. I may be able to get pyPIanobar to gracefully exit pianobar by sending the Q when it gets that error.

@Restap - Pandora is only available to US subscribers, however, you can use a proxy to make it *look* like you're in the US and get access to Pandora Radio. Pianobar supports using a proxy through the configuration file in ~/.config/pianobar/pianobar. There should be a commented out option regarding proxies that you can set. However, its up to you to find a proxy that works and you trust using; I don't use it and therefore can't recommend any.
