As of this writing (1.5 years after the article),
- Apple is trying to do #1 (richer albums) but it’s only available for very few recordings.
- #2 (syncing music playback across multiple devices is still not doable without special utilities (e.g. Airfoil by Rogue Amoeba)
- #3 Pandora has a friends system but it’s weak and doesn’t do this.
- #4 Pandora now lets you spend $36/year for commercial free, higher bitrate service. Yay! (Now just bring it to my Roku box, please)
The Pandora web UI really needs updating. They coded the whole thing in Flash (or Flex) and it’s quite cumbersome.
