Just curious if anyone has as much trouble with this app as I do? Its just made of fail for some reason. Its the only way I can listen to Rome in the afternoons and it doesn't work 95% of the time....Pandora, last.FM, AoR all stream fine...this just blows

I've never had a problem with it. I have an Eris that is still on 1.5, and iheartradio works fine every time I've used it.
 
Its hit or miss for me. I'm using Moto Droid and I use I heart radio everyday to listen to a morning show while I'm at work, or while driving home from work to hear what I missed. Some days it will connect -> Buffer -> play just like that. Most of the time though its Connecting........ -> Buffering....... -> Connecting...... -> Buffering...... and it takes like 25 minutes to start playing if it does at all. I'm not sure if the app was more popular than they thought and don't have the necessary bandwidth? I do notice that some of the less popular stations come through right away its only the more popular stations that do this to me. And the same thing Pandora, Slacker, anything else using internet has no issues what-so-ever. I wrote to the morning show I listen to because they always talk about Iheartradio and told them how crappy it was and the next day it was great, then a few days later back to the way it is.... I wish they'd get it together, I dont want to drop this program but its annoying sitting there waiting when I could be listening to something else instead of dead air waiting for it to play.
 
I'm glad that I'm not the only one having this problem! AF explained it perfectly!

Is there a solid edition to download? I'm running 2.2 (I believe) on my Droid and I am thoroughly annoyed.
