This has been the case since ios 7, but I wondered if anyone knows why.

Basically, attempting to play a song stored only in the cloud, and not on the device in the official music app will sometimes see it skipping right over it and playing he next in line. If none of my songs are on-device, I'll watch as the app skips from song to song ultimately failing to play anything.

Seems to be bandwidth related, but it also seems random, some days it'll buffer for a few seconds before playing, sometimes it won't even try.

Anyone ever stumbled upon a reason?
