----------------------------------------------------------------
Network downloads are sync because of an Apple issue:
https://github.com/apache/cordova-ios/blob/2.3.0/CordovaLib/Classes/CDVSound.m#L283
So we synchronously download the media file first. See the File Transfer API to
see async download use.

> Key: CB-1176
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-1176
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: iOS
> Affects Versions: 1.9.0
> Reporter: Christoph Pojer
>
> When calling myMedia.play() with an external Media file, the app fully
> freezes until the file can be played back.
> Steps to reproduce:
> var media = new Media(url, success, error);
> media.play(); // Browser freezes.
> It would be great if this could be changed so the browser does not freeze. It
> would make it easier for the developer to display a loading indicator or
> similar to the user for visual feedback.
