It will be interesting to see whether the bandwidth expense can get under control. Maybe with a frothy advertising market. In Internet Radio, the advertising market vanished in 2000-2001 and bandwidth killed the consumerization even though it was growing very fast...it became a 'feature' offered by portals like calendaring.
Any downtick in advertising will make Google's advantage unsurmountable, methinks
Once a good and respected brand, should be possible for a turnaround if the excess burn rate can be cut. Companies get fat in good times and then don't trim the fat when the market changes = a recipe for trouble. Best to trim the fat 24x7, e.g., don't get too fat in the first place. I think everybody (astute observers) said this company needed to go consumer to take advatantage of the cool aura but the best they could manage was a stripped down, expensive , underpowered version of their bread and butter product that was like travis, a year too late or a bridge too far
