Android media player needs too much data before it starts playing. Solution?

Question

Hi So I've been doing some experiments on Android and I noticed that the Android player needs around 32 seconds worth of music before it starts playing it (or entering the prepared phase). That's in the case of music streaming, I have a server on my workstation and I'm pointing the android player to it. It sounds like a lot, is it possible to make the player starts without that much data? Thanks -L
