Is there any way to get a playback offset for preview assets? It could be very interesting to probe audio characteristics from those audio samples such as tempo and rhythm. Then use them for autosync crossfade.

If it comes to preloading... Why is artwork not preloaded for the upcoming entry in advance? I have noticed considerably high latency (~1-2s) in presenting thumbnails on playback control embedded in the notification (so-called Now Playing) on queue shifting forward. The issue affects not only the Application Music Player but also the Music app.
I have tried to tweak it by firing a request for artwork, but it seems that cached responses for maximum artwork size are not reused by the Music app.
