Multitasking issues on iPad app

Edit Subject

I'm experiencing problems with multitasking on iPad client. When I start playing an album on MeCanto, and then go to another program (like Safari, Mail, etc...), the music goes on as expected. But then, after a while, randomly, it stops and I have to go back to MeCanto app to start it again.

It's a behaviour I'm not experiencing with other apps.

Is that a known issue? Thanks.

I am experiencing the same issues with the iPad app, it has something to do with how they are suspending the app in programming; they are not properly registering resource requests for suspended apps so the mecanto client can only play music which is buffered, it does not have access to the network layer in a suspended state to continue to download.

If you pause the track and wait a while to let the entire track buffer and then exit the app it will play the entire track the whole way through but you'll have to go back into the mecanto app to get the next track to load into the buffer space.
