Using Pandora Custom Playlists

With a Pandora Premium subscription, you’ll also get personalized playlists that are curated based on your listening history and behavior. These playlists are automatically generated and appear in your account from time to time. These playlists provide an alternative to custom options.

These lists are sometimes created after you hit a certain number of songs. You can also see these lists when you’ve been a Premium customer for a while, and Pandora’s algorithms have a better handle on music you like and dislike.
