Preload Up Next Songs

[mrnoisytiger]

It would be great if there was the ability to preload up-next songs when the current song is ending. That way, it would transition smoother and not have a few second gap between the songs.

While I observe this myself, I can't do much to address at MusicKit doesn't expose preload functionality.

Yes, Apple Music for Android works similar. The only difference that I see is in Music (iOS), I think that it use the cache, to cache the songs, to avoid this delay at change the songs or simply, dowloading them in the memory of device, I really don't know but they can be possibilities.

@naveedgol Is this possible by looking at what is the next audio URL in the queue and then begin downloading that audio stream to localstorage and when the next song goes to play, check to see if it exists in localstorage first?
