My main audio listening is to The Economist, which releases its entire weekly magazine (which is pretty large) in spoken word format. I store The Economist download either on the 16 gb microsd card I have or on internal memory, and it doesn't make any difference -- in neither case do I perceive any stuttering. even though I multitask as much as I want, without thinking about it, while listening.

I also listen to Internet Radio, and I do have problems with it sometimes. I attribute those problems to bandwidth issues not having anything to do with the N900, but to Time Warner Cable or to the radio station broadcasting over the net.

I know from many years playing chess on ICC and FICS that even low-bandwith usage such as sending chess moves over the net, it is not unusual at all for various internet problems to affect transmission.
