Elpis (Pandora Radio Client) - (C) 2015 - Adam Haile & Alexey Seliverstov
This is not a license. Elpis itself and it's source code (unless otherwise stated) are licensed under the GNU Public License (GPL) v3, available from http://www.gnu.org/licenses/ and in the install directory of this application.
Elpis is also free (as in "free speech" and "free cookies") software. If you paid for this software, you have been scammed and should demand your money back. Also, please contact elpis@adamhaile.net if this ever happens.
Elpis (as well as it's libraries) and it's creator are not affiliated with or endorsed by Pandora Media, Inc.
As such, Elpis depends on an independent implementation of their private API, meaning that changes made by Pandora can, and may, break compatability with Elpis at any time, without warning.
It is the intention of it's creator that Elpis be kept up to date and compatible with the Pandora service and any needed changes be made quickly, but NO GURANTEE is provided to this effect.
If you find that Elpis no longer functions with the Pandora service please either run the application again and let it check for updates (occurs on every application start) or visit http://elpis.adamhaile.net (or https://github.com/adammhaile/Elpis).
By installing Elpis, you agree to a small amount of data being collected and transmitted by the application for the purpose of providing the creator with minimal information on the current install base of the application. This helps make the application better by allowing more targeted testing based on version and platform.
How small, you ask? This small:
2011-12-13 06:25:51,068c23a6-9f48-4c2b-9237-f41077c2ab5f,0.8.0.0,0.8.1.991,Windows 7 Service Pack 1 32-bit
These values are:
2011-12-13 06:25:51 - Date and Time of install
068c23a6-9f48-4c2b-9237-f41077c2ab5f - Install GUID (random and helps determine number of unique users)
0.8.0.0 - Previous version of the application
0.8.1.991 - Newly installed version of the application
Windows 7 Service Pack 1 32-bit - Windows Version
The above CSV string is an actual data row from testing the application. No other data is ever or will ever be collected (check out the source if you would like: https://github.com/adammhaile/Elpis).
IMPORTANT NOTE FROM THE CREATOR:
Elpis was created out of a great love for the service provided by Pandora Media, Inc.
But Pandora is still a business and if we all want to continue to enjoy the great product, through Elpis or otherwise, it is strongly suggested that you support them in any way possible.
Purchasing a Pandora One subscription is one of the best ways and allows you to stream the music in even better quality (192kbps MP3 - Change it in Elpis settings after subscribing).
If you do not subscribe, please at least visit pandora.com and click on the ad links or click on any of the Title, Artist or Album text from within Elpis to be taken to the pandora.com info page for it and buy the song or the album. Every time you do this, Pandora gets a cut of the sale.
