Scott and list,

To be honest, I wonder whether it is in fact some problem other than
streaming which is taking place here. I've heard speculation that
perhaps there is a flaw in the iPhone 5 relating to switching between
WIFI and cellular data, but have no idea. Apps like iTunes Match,
Slacker Radio, Pandora, and so forth don't need a constant data
connection to work; but with streaming radio, you need a constant
connection to the server and if that connection drops for a split
second, you're going to notice it.

I did some testing with at least one person on this list a while back
and we could produce the same result. Streaming really does seem to be
more reliable on the 4S, but I don't have any scientific tests to back
that up--often, the 5 works just fine. Whatever's going on, it must be
a very subtle thing and I very much hope it's software-based, rather
than hardware.
