what would be an acceptable amount of cache storage for such an app, would you think?
because one thing I don't like about streaming is that the content can be gone next time you want to hear it. I use youtube-dl to save videos (or often just the audio stream) because of this.
If you leave out the video stream, they're quite tiny (in context of modern storage). A quick scan of my saved .opus files, shows the same rough ~1MB/min filesize that 128k mp3s have (except with way better quality of course).
