Does the browser "download" in advance in the cache while streaming an mp3?

I'm opening up an mp3 on the browser and on the bottom of the browser, there's a pause button and the option to mute/unmute. There's also a scrollable button that allows me to play at certain times of the mp3.

If I start playing/streaming an mp3, as it plays, will it continue to download the rest of the mp3 in the cache? I am listening to long mp3s (over an hour long) and I start listening to it at home where I have wifi and then continue listening to it as I'm driving and I'm wondering if it's going to continue downloading on my 3g or by the time I leave the house, it would have downloaded in its cache on the wifi?

Hi kstorm23,

It would actually depend on your carrier and network but there are some reported issues that engineering and our volunteers are looking at it.

I would highly recommend trying it and finding out if it works by streaming the sound file and then turning off wifi on the device.
