Is there an efficient way to play or stream mp3 files? I tried working it o=
ut on some existing source code, and while some methods work completely fin=
e when I ran them in test code [as in by itself], it would cause the projec=
t code I was working with to crash. My first thought was to find a way to s=
tream the mp3 data in a new thread and play it there, but I'm not sure how =
to properly go about this.=20










P.S. I notice that I do not have to do this for .wav files, and .wav has a =
rather simplistic implementation in comparison to mp3 that lets me stream i=
ts data in the same thread. is there any reason java operates in this manne=
r? if there is a way to do the same for mp3s in the same thread please let =
me know
