I think a new helper function would be required

Latency is a killer for this feature. My connection is pretty good,
but it appears the server latency is pretty bad. Two parallel
connections instead of the serial requests would probably speed things
up greatly. I might try to implement this, but it might take me a
while to figure out threading in C.
Look at the function in Xastir to download a track from findu. It
uses a separate thread. We use threads in other places too, mostly
interface.c, but it gets more complicated there.
