Some of these radios stream at a trifling 64 kbps, the absolute bare minimum bitrate for acceptable audio quality using the MP3 codec. The app developers used the available communication channels in an attempt to figure out what Apple would consider "reasonable" bandwidth usage over the cellular network, but Apple flatly refused to tell. This attitude will likely have a chilling effect, making radio broadcasters wary to invest any more resources into the iPhone.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME ?!?!?! people, customers and users of the iphone and app store should be outraged. rejecting an app before it hits the app store is one thing... straight up rejecting a major/core feature that could've been implemented via a software update is awful. the application has already been approved !!!
