There are a lot of new players in the music streaming including the new giant on the block Apple. In an attempt to keep both ad producers and listeners happy Pandora is trying out a new ad technique.
Tech Crunch reports that Pandora is launching “Sponsored Listening”.

Hulu has also experimented with this type of sponsored ad.
