To be fair, it's unclear how you'd actually implement this.
Would you suggest a special bit on the TCP packet saying "this is for music streaming" (cf RFC 3514)?
Or, more seriously, would T-Mobile have some form where anybody could enter a Bro filter to identify traffic coming from "their" "music streaming" service? Setting aside the fact that writing and running an arbitrary number of arbitrarily-complex DPI filters is hard, how would T-Mobile filter out people abusing the system ("my music streaming service also lets you stream one of ten songs, or you can torrent; the traffic is designed to be indistinguishable") without appearing to be biased towards big incumbents?
