The main difference here is that sorry does not really stream as such. Typical streaming send data in small chunks (think of live radio). In a fast connection, spotty gets files downloaded on a matter of seconds. But that's how other streaming services (Pandora, Napster, Tidal...) behave, too.

Players do not need to have full track in memory before playing as for example, this would mean some older players couldn't play 3-4hr downloaded podcasts. Also waiting for whole file to be downloaded would result in significant delay before playing started if player is in a slow connection.

If a typical WAV track size is ~60MB (worst case ~150MB for some), then I dont get how a 1 or 2GB input/output buffer size is beneficial. While some might see a benefit (no disk activity in between tracks) I would not encourage you to set that high a buffer. I've seen odd things happen in
