OAKLAND, Calif., Sept. 29 /PRNewswire/ -- Pandora, the leading personalized radio service, today announced that it will now offer advertising inventory on in-home connected devices such as televisions, Blu-ray players, table-top radios and digital media players. Campaigns on Pandora already play to consumers through PCs, smartphones and the iPad.
The new sponsorship opportunity will be available to only six advertisers a month; each with category exclusivity. Audio ads will have the strongest presence on consumer electronic devices, and campaigns that run on that platform will also run on the Pandora web and mobile platforms.

We offer a powerful media mix and cross-platform reach that effectively leverages different platforms to reach engaged consumers. Campaigns on this newest platform will primarily feature audio ads, which create a more lasting and emotive connection with consumers. The ability for brands to connect with consumers using audio ads on an in-home device is a new and exciting opportunity in our results-driven arsenal."
