Creating the Audio Clip
This is the final piece of the puzzle. AudioClip wraps the Android media player and provides methods for
(see Listing 6-13):

• Creating a clip using a resource ID or URI

• Playing or looping a sound

• Stopping a sound

Setting the volume
AudioClip deals with the nasty idiosyncrasies of the media player such as illegal state exceptions
when the resources are not prepared, played, or stopped in the right sequence.
