This thing is bitchin'. Way to go, sir; I applaud you.

I've been streaming the live show, on 3G, for the past week. Streaming works great, and submitting feedback works fine too. Looks pretty tight. Tanx!

Thank you all, don't forget the hard pimpin mofos like grundle Picard hypercrypt etc

Sometimes I'm still getting the message that streaming is disabled on cell service. Is there something I can do to get around this? I'm running the latest build, and sometimes it lets me stream over 3g, and other times it doesn't.

Try to pay attention to what events are happening before it occurs. It used to happen if you stopped the app while streaming and then started it back up but I think I fixed that.

I'll try and get it to do that tomorrow and go from there.

My app has been approved, it allows streaming over the Cellular Data Network at 48 kbps AAC+ or 128 kbps MP3, depending on the user's preference. There is no option to limit streaming to WiFi.

I maintain that they hate me as a person.

However the difference may be that by using mpmovieplayer instead of audiostreamer I am actually pulling down the whole file as fast as the network will allow instead of just taking it 128kb at a time.

I think that it's more the hate than the second thing.

The katg one? I don't see it in the app store.

That sounds plausible. The rumor is that ATT hasn't released MMS because iPhone users suck too much bandwidth as it is. But, of course, Apple won't/can't say that. Could it be that Apple is rejecting apps that pull too much bandwidth, but can't state that as a reason?

Of course, there's RSSPlayer and probably other bandwidth-expensive apps, but now there's also push notifications and MMS which are more important (to them) than any new apps.

Ehh, they probably just hate you.

1. More than anything else, Steve Jobs actually hates me as a person. He has board meetings about how I'm a jerk ass and my apps can never be approved.

2. The last rejection noted bandwidth use as the primary reason for rejection.
