Please change codec. Data caps make mobile streaming unworkable.

I left Spotify for MOG because 96kbps OGG VORBIS is a nonstarter.  MOG uses AAC-HE at half the bitrate.

This means:

- I do not blow out my new 2GB/month data cap from streaming 30-60 mins/day

- On 3G, instead of constant dropouts in midtown Manhattan at rush hour, almost no dropouts

- Significantly better sound quality.

You get what you pay for.  I know AAC-HE costs money while OGG doesn't, but the codec Spotify uses for mobile streaming is unworkable.

Hi there. You should raise this in the Ideas forum rather than here as an Android specific question

Sorry, but I have no idea where to find the "ideas forum."
