I've been having issues with iTunes radio (and I guess the music app in general) on my 5s where after listening for a while, then pausing the stream my phone will soft reset (show boot screen with apple logo then home screen) when I access it again.
I'm trying to figure out if this is a problem with my particular 5s or something wrong with the app itself. I've had other apps crash on me before (Chrome in particular) but nothing that causes the soft reboot. :hmm:

I haven't used itunes radio on my iphone/ipad enough to say it never crashes, but the few times I have I never experienced any crashes

I definitely have the fast reboot problem on occasion. Maybe once every week or so.

I've listened to about 100+ hours or so (iP5s & 5th gen iPod Touch), haven't had that problem, sounds like you may need to have the phone replaced.

Yea that may happen, as I've been having battery issues as well.

Yes, a huge problem. I can't skip more than 6 songs per whatever time limit. This is 2013; Spotify lets me skip infinitely.

No problems with it running but a problem with the crappy song selection. Doesn't iTunes have the largest digital library? Then how come it repeats the same 100 or so songs?

It's worse than Pandora.

Going to take my phone to an Apple Store over the weekend and see if they have any idea on the soft reboot thing. But I have pretty much come to the same conclusion. Apple wasted a lot of money in making Pandora actually look good.
