I've come to the conclusion that this is simply a problem with the iPhone 5. I've tried no less than four iPhone 5 units and can successfully reproduce the problem on all of them and I've been able to get several other users to reproduce the problem as well. My current iPhone has been tested on T-Mobile in the United States and on Telus Mobility in Canada as well as multiple WIFI networks and the problem never completely goes away, though it can be mitigated to a certain extent. I would say that my current iPhone, which is the new A1428 pentaband model that was released in April of this year, performs the best. But the problem is still there at least to a certain extent.
It's worth noting that apps like Pandora work differently in that they do not require a constant TCP connection to a specific, live stream. So it is not really an accurate comparison to streaming using TuneIn or Ootunes or other apps that stream live radio stations.
