Is it possible that your streaming problems are a result of your service provider??? Or area in which you live??? I have an iPhone 5, my service provider is AT&T, and I live in N. carolina USA. I use TuneIn radio and pandora on a daily basis with absolutely no problems with streaming. I on occasion use my iPhone while travelling across my state to attend appointments and while travelling on vacation. The only time I encounter problems streaming is when travelling through rural areas. At home I'm mostly connected to wifi and when out and about I'm connected by 4G LTE

Sad that as time goes on, things get crappier.
