library

Hello, I would like to know how can I import songs from a web service into
Android library without having to download the file into sdcard. I have all the data from the web service but I do not know how to
integrate the tracks into Android database. My idea is not to have to
download the files, but playing them on streaming using the music
player. Do I need to download the tracks to the sd card and then Android does
all the stuff?

Thanks in advance
