I will submit the questions to Tesla and let you know the response.

Answer from Tesla:
Hi Richard,
Thank you for contacting Tesla Motors. I apologize for the delay, as I have been out of the office for the last few days.
The Slacker App for the Model S was always built with the “Plus” account in mind. Due to this, most of the premium account functionality will not function through the app. The Slacker “Plus” account that is currently being included with the vehicle is a 3-month trial that should include unlimited skips.
Stations you create on the web should also be available on the Model S, but the trial version of the subscription is only accessible through the Model S. If you choose to create your own Slacker account after this trial period ends, you will have the functionality of utilizing it on the web, as well as the vehicle.
“Any Song” is a premium feature of Slacker. While it was initially available on the Model S, Slacker’s implementation has been intermittent. That is to say, it should not be enabled on “Plus” accounts, but it seems to be functioning on some.
We hope to improve the app over time, as well as release more documentation on all the functionality of the vehicle in the future.
Thank you,
Derek Shu
My Slacker radio still allows unlimited skip and has kept the radio station that I created. It remembers my +'s and still allows me to select new ones if I skip the +'s.
No complaints so far. Hope they continue to add more benefits to the S availability, like the Premium functionality to the S application.
