Yeah, my first reaction was why not stream radio from a smartphone, but I guess those are limited over there too. I'm not sure which direction the trend is going (toward the UK way or the US way) but I know there would be an uprising in my house if any limits were imposed. With the incredible growth of Netflix and video streaming sites, I just can't imagine there would be any possibility to cap or charge more for reasonable usage (reasonable as compared to the use by other, similar customers). Any carrier trying to do that would lose its subscribers to competitors not doing so. -- Goodsounds ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Goodsounds's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=14201 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=85190 _______________________________________________ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
