He already has a pretty extensive collection on Itunes and he can search for new music he might be interested in on Youtube, etc.

I made him an offer he couldn't refuse: I bought him a Clip Jam, but if he streams he'll have to pay the data charges.
Tell me about it. I just switched to an unlimited mobile plan last month. My nephew went through 13 GB this billing cycle, even after I told him he was using too much. I'm making him an offer he can't refuse. I'm putting him back on a 6 GB limit until he can show that he can control himself.
