Thanks for the replies guys.

Have done a bit more research on the buffering and it seems that
windows media player is particularly bad (if that's the right term) at
buffering the mp3 stream. It effectively downloads as much as is can,
which means you changing the stream (skipping songs for example) takes
a long time to respons (minutes).

Tried using winamp as a player and it doen't download quite as
aggressively. Appears to only download/buffer 5 seconds ahead of the
current position, so commands only take 5 seconds to take effect, which
is manageable.

Question is I guess whether the Pico downloads agressively like windows
media player or behaves like winamp. Ideally, it would be configurable.
