iOS6 brought with it a lot of minor changes to the iOS system as a whole, changes which werent very apparent from the start but were showing sooner than later. Some of those changes were really amazing to find such as the detailing inside the music app where the app reflection tilts based on your gyroscope and some were just simply annoying.
This is where the Jailbreak community shows its awesomeness, by simply reinstating the useful features of the previous versions which were removed. Installing the tweak BgVideo allows the processes to work the same as before and once you reveal the multitasker you see Safari or YouTube instead of the Music app, therefore enabling the streaming audio to be played in the background.
The BgVideo tweak is really useful for when you're usually streaming your audio on the go while doing some other activity like running or going for a stroll etc. The tweak however is still not available on the public Cydia sources, so for that you have to add the following source into your Cydia and then install the tweak.
BgVideo: Play YouTube or Safari Videos in Background
One of these changes was that before iOS6 you could run a YouTube video or run some other video in Safari and then when you closed Safari the audio still played in the background, better knows as audio backgrounding. iOS6 changed that where it disabled the background audio and it got very annoying that you couldnt listen whatever played in the background while doing something else on your phone.This is where the Jailbreak community shows its awesomeness, by simply reinstating the useful features of the previous versions which were removed.
