The reason I implemented it in PHP in my Asterisk Voicemail app is so that some security checks can be performed. They have to log in to the app, so once they are authenticated they are allowed access to the media files of thier mailbox only. Otherwise people could try to guess other people's mailboxes on the same server and listen to other poople's voicemails. Simply redirecting and letting Apache handle the HTTP 206 stuff is fine if security is not of concern with whatever media you are dishing out.
