		chollida1 on June 10, 2013 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Apple Unveils iTunes Radio If you are like me, then the answer is bandwidth. Alot of plans only have 500Megs per month of data. I'm looking at plans in Canada If each song takes 5 Megs then I can stream 100 songs a month if I don't use any additional bandwidth. Additionally I can't listen to this music during my subway commute into work, which is my primary music listening time.

Rdio lets you sync songs / albums locally onto your mobile device and then doesn't require a connection to play them. Not sure if other services have similar features.
