What you say makes sense but doesn't windows have the same issues with wav
files?  Sending the wav file to the play is no guarantee as to when it's
actually played?

It makes more sense to use a wave file since it's clocked at a specific
rate.  Most music isn't available as a wav though and it takes a lot of
space.  Definitely needs some more thought.

Thanks
