Pandora + Rhythmbox - a dream combination!

I had to restart my browser so many times because other webpages with flash content messed with Pandora flash player. So I searched exhaustively and found out a way to play Pandora in Rhythmbox!! -- sweet!!

Here is the stuff you need to do:

You need to install Pithos first:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kevin-mehall/pithos-daily
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install pithos

Then you install this plugin:
cd && wget http://webupd8.googlecode.com/files/rhythmbox-pandora.tar.gz
tar -xvf rhythmbox-pandora.tar.gz
cd pandora && chmod +x setup.sh && ./setup.sh


Restart rhythmbox and goto Edit->Plugins->Pandora and select it. Give your pandora credentials and it should work like a charm.

Enjoy!!
