Pandora Media's Management Presents

All right. As we -- thanks for bearing with us as we continue to figure out how to make these transitions work. But we don’t want to waste anymore time, before we get to the next event. So sitting next to me is Dominic from Pandora. Now I have to say if there is one Company that sort of wraps up what we’re trying to accomplish with this event, it’s probably Pandora just because I would assess -- I don’t know if Dominic may not describe it this way, but to me its just fascinating combination of one of the oldest forms of mass media which is radio, which is taking advantage of all the things you can do with new technology to make it more personal and to distribute it new and more effective ways and mashing that all together to create something new and valuable which is just inherently fascinating to me. So I can’t wait to get into that. Just to set the playing field level, I think it’s probably worth a few seconds just to make sure everybody in the audience knows exactly sort of what Pandora is and does. I wouldn’t spend -- people probably know, but let’s make sure maybe you will find a couple of new subscribers by doing that and then we will dive into the conversation.kaufen pandora charms online

Yes, that’s great. Thanks Todd for having me here and for Pandora as well. It’s funny I built my career on the concept of disruption. The vast majority of my career was actually spend in cloud computing, so hoping to describe new business models to Wall Street in the media for the last 10 kaufen pandora armband billig

So for the last three years I have been spent more on the consumer tech side, which is oh so exciting. There is something new everyday that either matters or doesn’t matter to the Company from a perception standpoint. But before that it was really around cloud computing. So I started my career at salesforce.com and then success factors are hoping to establish them in the public markets and then coming over to Pandora to describe a whole new business model.kaufen pandora armband charms

I’ve investors actually from the Boston region that were my largest holders of both those prior companies and they were like Dom why didn’t you stay in cloud computing, you finally people get it especially on the deferred revenue model.With Pandora it's a whole new ballgame. Pandora we are essentially redefining radio for a connected world. Only today has internet connectivity become as pervasive as radio waves, and so Todd you mentioned the concept of the whole conference was around the Future of Media.

And when you think about it, people ask, but why did it take so long for radio to go through this transition? And part of that is its just simple connectivity and ease of use really haven't gained critical mass and scale until the recent -- even the last five years. And the next three years will even have -- the next five years will have even multiples of that effect as well.billig pandora rings verkauf

I was -- I had the opportunity to go out and visit our local sales team in Denver and Kansas City and the driver in Kansas City was telling us that essentially Google Fiber is there now. So even the concept of free around radio is extending now to free around connectivity and really that’s the only gaining factor for Pandora’s growth and Pandora’s usage is really around -- just sheer connectivity and device pervasiveness.

And so for billig pandora rings verkauf we are bringing the best of radio, which when you think about that there is kind of four key hallmarks of that. And the first one would be free ad supported to the consumer. The second would be zero work, so its ease of use. The third would be ubiquity that comes in forms of connectivity, comes in forms of device ability to connect and then the fourth would be discovery, discovery of new music.
