Actually, the delay isn't too annoying between songs, as then I'm not
"waiting for the song to start playing". It is noticable when I manually
jump to a different song (which at least I tend to do quite a lot,
playing a new album, whatever ..) .. because then i see/feel the app
freezing for a second, which feels sluggish.
