If you are thinking of buying a K-Vape from KandyPens, listen to my tale of woe first.
On the morning of 2/17/16, I ordered a K-Vape from KandyPens and was promised shipment on the next business day.
When this did not transpire, I made several futile attempts to contact KandyPens, at which point I contacted their local Better Business Bureau and made a complaint.
Miraculously, several hours after the complaint was lodged, the unit was shipped and I got some belated email from them.
Flash forward to 2/22/16 when my K-Vape arrived, I plugged it in to charge and came back several hours later to find a unit which, I assumed, was fully charged.
I used the unit and, admittedly, it worked pretty good - for about 2 hours or so then the power gave out.
I plugged the unit in and let it charge for over 15 hours but the "fully charged" light never came on and the pen wouldn't work.
I contacted customer support and got a letter from Karris suggesting I let it charge overnight. I replied that I had done so.
She replied and told me to send the unit back, which I did on 2/24/16 (at a cost of $2.60), and a new unit would be sent.
They actually did send me a new unit and even though it says it charges up in 3 hours, it took well over 15 hours and like the last unit, worked for about 2 hours then needed to be recharged, which took over 15 hours.
I contacted KandyPens and they said to send it back, which I did on 3/2/16.
So will I ever get a working K-Vape or am I doomed to keep spending $2.60 to send defective units back?
Stay tuned...

This review is solely for the PC program, I don't use Pandora on my tablet or smart phone.
After a few false starts making my own station, I contacted Pandora and they were extremely helpful.
The selection of music for their own channels is first rate with an occasional head scratcher.
Since it's free, they stop from time to time and ask you to perform a "Sponsor Activity" but you can ignore it and go back to the music.
You get to "like" songs, which seems to put them in the rotation more often, and not like a song which banishes from that station.
Pandora has a few quirks, the most glaring of which is the lack of instructions but I listen to it all day and the music is great.

I've used 1and1 for the last several years and have not encountered any major problems except for a service outage that lasted several days a few years ago.
On the downside, their tech support appears to be outsourced to India. Some of the techies are impossible to understand and some are quite stupid. On the other hand, I haven't needed much in the way of tech support due to the problem-free nature of their service.
My sites are relatively low traffic, so I don't know how 1and1 is for sites with heavy traffic.
All in all and knowing what I do now, I probably would use a different service if I were just starting out but, as things are going OK now, I'm not likely to switch.

What's not to like? It's free, it has a zillion movies and TV shows and it works good.
There are occasional delays but in general, the media load fairly quickly.
Did I mention it's FREE?

Crackle sucks so bad it defies belief.
Endless and frequent commercial breaks make it impossible to watch anything.
I was watching a 3 Stooges short and every 3 or 4 minutes it was interrupted by a commercial, the last one lasting several minutes.
At least I think it was the last one because I gave up in disgust and uninstalled this crappy app.
I would be willing to put up with a commercial or two at the beginning or end but the only purpose of this app is seemingly to show commercials ad nauseum.
There are much better apps to see your favorite shows and movies, so don't waste your time with this piece of crap.
