Well, most of the streaming media systems actually download your media, it's called cacheing. I think that netflix caches several minutes ahead. You pretty much have to do this to avoid hesitations.
I like the way Apple handles it now. It will keep the entire song on the device until it needs the space, or until you manually delete it. That can come in handy if you hit a dead spot. I would like a bit finer control but you can't have everything.
