Patrick, Thanks so much for the prompt response. In my initial message,
I neglected to mention that prior to logging on to Pandora, I checked
the usage of data for the month and found that it was almost nil.

Hello Donald and all:
Let me start with the punch line … :). I have absolutely no idea what the
answer to your question is … though I might have a way to get at an answer.
I am an AT&T customer. If I type in *data# "*3282#" I receive a text message
back informing me of my current usage. did you have any idea what your usage was before using
pandora? if so, you might be able to get a ballpark idea if you use the comparable verizon
feature … if there is such a beast. I cannot believe there is not such a beast :).
Of course I could say … of course Pandora uses such and such data … or of
course pandora could never use such and such amounts of data in an hour. the
only way to find out is to test it and take the guess work out of it.
Of course, there will be a lag in the update time though an educated guess can
be reached.
Hopefully this information proves useful to you. Please let us know.
Take good care and I wish you enough.

I feel foolish asking this question because I am certain that something is
radically wrong. But what?
One of my IOS devices is a 4S running IOS 7.02. It is activated on the Verizon
network. The other day, while waiting for an appointment, I listened to Pandora
for 55 minutes, using cellular data. I have the app called Dataman which I
checked for usage and found that Dataman alleged a data usage of almost 75 megs
for that 55 minute period. I remember reading a post a couple of months ago on
this list stating that Pandora usage should be perhaps 16 megs per hour. Prior
to turning on Pandora, I had cleared the app switcher of everything with the
exception of Dataman; so I know that no other app was using cellular data while
Pandora was running.
So the question becomes, is it even possible for Pandora (the free version) to
use almost 75 megs in slightly less than an hour? Opinions and ideas please.
