The problem with Pandora is it drains your phone battery while you are just driving + it uses up your data plan as well when listening while driving. If you are on an Unlimited plan (which I got grandfathered in on with AT&T) no problem but there is a large population that is just on one of the smaller data plans. I love Sirius-- you can get the basic channels for like $12 a month it's not that expensive--if you love music.
