Beluga Player

Regardless of whether you love to discover new music that matches your taste or you created new stations with all of your favorite artists and tracks, you have your good reasons why you like the Pandora radio station.

Beluga Player is a multi-platform utility that enables you to quickly explore new music genres or play music from your favorite Pandora stations on your computer.

Granted, if you have a music library installed, then you have some media manager already installed. Then again, if you are using Pandora, then it is likely that you want to share the best tracks or new artists you discover.

With Beluga Player, you can enable scrobbling and build an interesting user profile where new and excited entries are added every day. You can increase the chances of finding other users who enjoy the same songs and music genres as you.

On a side note, some users might argue that scrobbling is a feature used by online app developers to track or monitor user behaviors. While this can be true, let us not forget that this option also aids radio stations – and social networks in general – to organize and make recommendations that actually match your music tastes.

It is necessary to mention that the program features an anti-ad feature that you can activate from the Preferences window. While the detector is basic, it can mute ads and can match songs shorter than 45 seconds.

This feature can surely be quite helpful if you are regularly listening to free Pandora stations, which are known to have irritating ads. While some users can argue that activating this option can also mute tracks, the chances of coming across songs under this duration are slim.

Featuring options to detect and mute ads as well as a function that allows you to discover new music and make friends, Beluga Player can be a good app to try out if you are using Pandora.
