Well, the flip side is, why does only music get this benefit? What if I didn't care if my 50mb download takes 10 times as long? Wouldn't it then fall under the same kind of "using dead time" thing?

All t-mobile plans that qualify for free music streaming are "unlimited" in that after you reach your data allotment it does just that -- cuts bandwidth by an order of magnitude. Its entirely possible that it works the same way as is suggested above.
