iPhone podcast Bucks America

Last month, a lot of radio listeners began to listen to American life on the iPhone. So many, in fact, the traffic began to look for suspicious.

The face of an amazing Internet bill, the National Public Radio broadcast the suspect is a mistake, so they asked the Public Radio Exchange - the company is called American Life iPhone app PRX established - look into the matter .

PRX's conclusion: there is a wrong way of the Internet on the iPhone streaming audio, it has become the bandwidth nasty pig version of the phone.

This is the latest black mark against a version of the software, now qualifies as Apple is the most serious. Added a new map program, wireless software updates, this problem spend some Apple customers money, because they blow past monthly data preparation.

This problem affects the power of the iPhone and iPad, but it looks like the problem has been fixed in version 6.0.1 iOS operating system version 6.0.0. This means that, if you do not update your Apple device, because prior to November 1, you should. If not, you can from your mobile operators facing some nasty bandwidth costs.

Apple did not respond to the message of the story, but it is clear, error pop-up, the company has changed, streaming content download devices to download data more frequently iPhone - but in smaller chunks - than ever before version of the software, according to the Chris Roden, PRX developer and blog on this issue. The end result is that the the iPhone phone often try to download a small piece of a small piece several times per second, and frequently asked over and over again the same data. "It seems to be out of control a lot of small requests," he said.

The two hosts of PRX - 99% invisible borers - podcasts also see a big spike in iOS traffic, although an increase of 10 times, not as big as life experiences in the United States, Roden said.

Roden said, although the issue is resolved in iOS 6.0.1 version, it still is a problem podcast. This is because 23% of PRX iOS tourists have not been upgraded to version 6.0.0.

PRX best documentation problem, this company is not aware of this issue only. Co-sponsored the "no agenda, Adam Curry, said he also noticed a serious iOS peak traffic, his podcast.

Last Thursday, we arrived at the four content delivery networks - Akamai, Limelight Networks Cooperation CloudFlare, and podcasts experts liberated areas of integration - if they have noticed this problem, but they did not immediately respond. These types of Internet service providers, this is the use of the Internet in American life program to speed up delivery.

Users have been complaining about Apple Forum data leakage and nasty phone bill Week. Although some of them has been made in the way of a known bug the iPhone switch in Wi-Fi and cellular networks, curry stream error - there may be other - may be the culprit.

Curry know something, just as soon as possible iOS 6 out. "We immediately saw an incredible rush, we can see that it is a device from Apple," he said. "The traffic is unbelievable, this bandwidth bill.

Curry has been on Apple's case, a few weeks to solve this problem, his anger. Apple never publicly discussed a problem, he said, he has spent his audience deeply mad. "They are an arrogant bunch of cocksuckers," he said. "It cost so much money, they will not say things."
