Audio/video content sites to take full advantage of PC or smartphone memory and resources

a) Audio/video content sites to take full advantage of PC or smartphone memory and resources. Right now, my internet connection is DSL but low-speed (150kbps in Kuwait), so playing fully streaming songs/videos from internet, causes gaps in loading content. Since the music/video that I am playing from your site is the same, can you enhance your technology so as to be able to store any song after it is played once in my PC/smartphone, so it can be re-used later again, and this will also put less strain on your application servers. Something of the order of Google gears/native code might be needed here.
b) Ability needed to be able to surf a video/audio content site, without having to open up a new browser page : Currently, when I am watching an online video/audio at your site and want to look for more video/audio content at that site, I have to open up a new browser page, since if I attempt to surf the site on the same browser page, then another page loads that has the search results and the video/audio stream terminates. But website like www.playlist.com has provided a cool feature that allows one to be listening to music etc and if the user intends to surf the site, then even though new pages will open up, but the music player remains as it is and does not terminate the currently playing content.
