[Pandora,] the veteran online radio provider said Thursday it will let listeners can[sic] skip more songs and replay tracks if they watch an extra ad. For $5 a month, paid members get those perks without any commercials plus a mode for listening offline, in a revamped subscription called Pandora Plus.

The announcement marks the most substantive change to Pandora's service in years by giving its listeners more control. It's also a step toward the kind of on-demand subscription music service popularized by newer rivals like Spotify and Apple Music.

There's also a github-hosted, command-line-based tool called pianobar that lets you skip all Pandora ads for free.
