What does Pandora's Jar traffic look like from Pandoras end?

[TOKe]

When you are using PJ, does it look like a normal person just streaming the tunes on Pandoras end?

Just wondering if the mp3s are being transferred over the wire or created locally from a cache?

thanks

I don't think they can see it, because the songs are cached on your PC and then moved.

I thought the songs were transfered twice, in a "push-pull" fashion so to speak...

How do things looks from the ISP end????

Just wondering if they see an http file transfer of .mp3 or what's really going on...

I guess I could get motivated and hook up a sniffer... just thought someone out there could provide an answer quicker...

thanks!

No quick answers here, the gurus are gone.

The ISP basically sees what the pandora network sees

the pandoras jar doesnt really give any indication to them  when it is going to grab something

Normally with flash 8, pandora caches the files to the TEMP directory on your computer. All PJ does is find those, rename, move, tag, etc them. This is all done locally, so everything looks normal from all places except within your computer itself.

That's great news.

Thanks!!!

Then "hook up a sniffer" instead of just talking about it.
