Where do online music providers like Pandora and last.fm get their music? 3 points by pcharles 14y ago ↗ HN How do they get access to the large catalogs of music? And where do they store them? Or is it a CDN provider that they all piggback off of?
[–] robbiet480 14y ago ↗ Pandora rips it all from CDs. I have seen the stations. They are required by the license to keep the CDs on the premises as well. I live down the street from Pandora's office in Oakland, California. [–] trafficlight 14y ago ↗ I always wondered why they required a physical cd if you want to submit your music to them. Now I know.
