Question

skip to a point in progressive download mp3 before downloaded

Is it possible these days to skip to a point within a progressive download mp3, before this point has preloaded, similar to what i'm seeing with video players such as youtube? in the past, i've used FMS to achieve this, was wondering how people achieved this without using a streaming server.

I'd have thought you need to install pseudostreaming script in your server to do this.

currently the only way you can do this is with a streaming server.  the other Hack you can do is cut the movie into subsections, and encoed them.. then load them consecutively.

This requires a lot of work and a lot of management but can be done.
