I have a variety of .mp3 files on my site. If someone wants to listen
to them while browsing other pages (or other sites) they just open the
music page in a new tab, click the songs, and browse elsewhere in
another tab. Or, just download all the .mp3 files to their own hard
drive and setup their own play list in their favorite music player.
I think you're probably trying to make the solution far more complex
than it needs to be. But, hey, if you're having fun ...! ;-)
