Seems this is conceptually similar to the prebuffer next track feature 
requested in 
Issue #7.  Two lists would serve both purposes: a downloadlist and a playlist.  
User 
chosen songs would be appended to both lists, with downloadlist advancement 
going on 
in the background and playlist advancement in the foreground.  Clicking "Next 
track" 
would, if the download has not completed, cause removal from both lists and 
deletion/
hiding of any partial file.  This way any tracks played in Ampache Mobile are 
now 
available offline in Music Player.

Currently you can only download the transcoded track from Ampache, with the 
tags and
cover art stripped. 

Need the API to update to allow for download of the clean files.  Or need to 
come up
with a method to re-tag the files, PDK?
