It’s been quite a while since I’ve listened to my favourite music site Pandora. Ever since they were forced to shut down access outside the US, there have been several solutions floating around - most of them revolving around proxies and anonymous surfing. All of which I’ve found too much hassle.
globalPandora is the most elegant solution I’ve seen to date. Nothing fancy - just the familiar Pandora box where you can start listening to your favourite flavor of songs right away… all in the usual fast high quality streaming that we’re used to.
A note of caution here that globalPandora is probably nothing more than a proxy site dedicated to Pandora. This also means that security may be a risk, because you type in your login and password in globalPandora. Well, to rest easy just open an all new Pandora account with a login/password you can afford to compromise.
Enjoy your music!

Hey very cool!
I usually use Replay Media Catcher to Record pandora, it captures MP3 files from Pandora perfectly, and will even tag them with the artist, title, album and genre information.
Anyways, if you want to check it out, it’s the same program that people use to record yahoo music:
