Did T-Mobile just level the audio playing field once and for all?

Conceptual game-changer.  What if Verizon or AT&T does this and eliminates the concern of using all your data listening to Pandora or whatever.

I think the data consumption concern (for audio) is mainly mental anyway, although I too suffer from it at times and had to mentally free myself to listen to World Cup games in the car (via ESPN via TuneIn.).  I have read all sorts of estimates but here is one that suggests that data-consumption wouldn’t hit the wall on most plans anyway.

So here’s what T-Mobie has done

 

T-Mobile has just announced at its “Uncarrier 5.0″ event (which apparently double as the Uncarrier 6.0 event) that all streaming music services will now be free to stream on T-Mobile, including iTunes Radio. This also applies to Pandora, iHeartRadio, Slacker Radio, and Spotify.

via iTunes Radio streaming is now free on T-Mobile, other services also included | 9to5Mac.

Check out what we’re up to at Alternative Sports Talk.  Audio streaming soon (via TuneIn)
