Are the OTA updates disabled once you jailbreak?

For iOS? No, but you'll basically lose your jail break when you update.

It's like RTTS and an RPG game had a kid.

Really like this game. 9Innings is a pretty good one too.

Spotify is a million times better!

There's room for both. Pandora is much better as a radio app, IMO. Spotify is good for when you know exactly what you want to listen to.

this^

we are remodeling my house with a lot of help. dad, uncle, father in law, brother, friends, etc. so trying to find a good mix of music to play all day for everyone.

started with the "rock" station on Spotify - while i like it, there is too much hard stuff mixed in there for the older guys and there doesn't seem to be a "classic rock" station on Spotify.

switched to "classic rock" on Pandora and worked out a lot better.

Re: iPhone Discussion Thread

I'm 40 years old, so I may have a slightly different slant on this - just because of my adult-world schedule. But here are the apps that I find very helpful:

maps: google maps, NearMe
weather: the weather channel, local tv weather (as a Floridian - I dodge potential hurricane warnings for 6 months)
news: flipboard, local tv news channels
Bank of America - LOVE being able to deposit my check with it!
My AT&T - to track our family data plan usage (esp. my 13 year old son!!)
youtube, twitter, facebook, facebook messenger, facebook camera
photography: instagram, instaframe free, instaEditor, Pic Stitch, BeFunky
sports: espn SportsCenter (only for scores - I have directv - can't use their main app), NBA Game Time (works with my directv subscription so I can watch the games on my phone), yahoo fantasy sports apps, Big Ten To Go (LOVE it!!), Team Stream, ESPN College Football, MLB.com At Bat
shopping: starbucks (probably my favorite app!), Red Laser, Wallet, SunPass (for local Florida tolls - track my account), Publix (Florida grocer), Target, Wal-Mart, Best Buy, GameStop, Walgreens, CVS, BasBuddy (finds gas stations near you with prices included!)
TV: DirecTv (both apps), IMDB
iHeartRadio
97.1 The Fan (Columbus, OH sports radio - since I've moved to Florida from Columbus - love hearing the interviews)
Google Chrome, Google Drive (synched with my computers - so I can review my documents that I want to be mobile)
Barnes & Noble, Nook
Amazon.com
eBay
PayPal

I'm pretty much set with these - I don't play games on my phone, and these have been very helpful for me and thought I'd share them as well.

Re: iPhone Discussion Thread

One super powerful part of spotify radio is you can make a playlist and base it off that, plus the up and down feature configures it well. Spotify has completely replaced pandora for me.

Yeah, like I said, Spotify is great for when you know what you want to listen to. It's more of a replacement for iTunes syncing your music than it is for Pandora.

Pandora is still hands-down better from a music discovery standpoint.

Comparing a Pandora station to a Spotify station, for the same artist, you'll get much better variety from the former than you will from the latter.

Plus, one's free and the other is freemium.

I had a lot of fun with the 2012 version of this.

Has anyone played both versions? Is it worth getting the new one?
