Bluesound Node Does Not Stream Pandora...bummer!

I bought a Bluesound Node, only to find out that it does not stream Pandora directly. I’m bummed.
I use Pandora for their jazz artist ’radio’ stations. The algorithm they use to conjure up playlists is truly outstanding. I’ve discovered so much new music and so many new artists because of it. I’ve tried all of the other pay services to test their ability to create great playlists for jazz, but no one does it like Pandora. Is there another streamer of equal sound quality and similar price range that plays Pandora?

Tidal, Napster, Amazon Music and internet radio sound wonderful on this unit....but I need my Pandora for new music!  The Node will play Pandora through my phone via Bluetooth, but the sound quality is not up to snuff, direct is the only way to go.

geof3,
...when I do it through AirPlay, it sounds like the life has been sucked out of it.  Before I got the Node I was playing Pandora on my phone through a bluetooth adapter on my stereo....even that was more satisfactory than Airplay. 

I'm buying an old Sonos Connect unit from eBay for dirt cheap, it plays Pandora direct.
