Since it is a streaming format it's not well suited for looping. I think of
them as cassette tapes that you have to rewind (re-start the download)
before you can hear them from the start. Doesn't that make you wish for the
old 8-track tapes?
Check out the table in this tech-note:
"Director 7.0.2 sound playback options comparison"

You _might_ get away with fully importing the .wav or .aiff files into an
externally linked cast, then shocking that cast. Then the sounds might be
treated as normal fully embedded sounds in that they load into ram before
playback. This may enable the non-linear, near immediate rewind (loop). I
haven't tried this in a Shockwave environment.
