I would suggest a more simple solution, as in the example on the following
page:
http://www.doctorbusker.com/music.php
Each link to play a streaming audio clip is a simple link such as <a
href="http://www.doctorbusker.com/music/drunk-128.m3u">Link</a> - what
happens next is that the associated application on the user's computer takes
over, and loads the file with the ".m3u" extension. That file is a
"playlist" which contains only the url of the mp3 file which is to be
streamed.
Simple, and allows the end user to use his or her preferred application to
handle the file. Have a direct download link below in case they have no
application configured for streaming or want to download and save. Of course
with another program handling the music (e.g. Windows Media Player, Winamp,
etc.) changing the page in the browser by clicking a link won't affect the
playback.
