Android default music app - add songs from web instead of filesystem
I would like to leverage (reuse) the built in Android music app to play songs/artists/albums/playlist that their origin is from the web and not from SDcard/internal storage.
To be more accurate, I see that the content is retrieved from MediaStore.Audio.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI.
Is there a way to add web audio to the media store?
Basically, why wouldn't it be possible? The mediaPlayer knows how to play remote audio.
Please advise...

Do you want to do this in Java, or are you asking about using the music app?
