What you have to consider: Music streaming with a mobile phone contract
If you would like to listen to or stream music on the go, be warned: The data content of the respective mobile phone contract will be exhausted quickly and the data traffic will be throttled to GPRS speed. This makes streaming virtually impossible. You should therefore only stream music on the WiFi network if possible. Don't want to go to Spotify and co. the offer from Deutsche Telekom (Spotify Premium) will be the right choice - this includes the data volume that comes with mobile streaming.
