Youtube also handles it pretty well, but the twitch player for example, gives up forever if the network is too flakey, who exactly wants that behavior?

Youtube Music, however, has the opposite problem. It always tries to load the online version, regardless of whether I have downloaded the file already. Even if I specifically clicked a file in the downloaded list, it will still try the online version when the next song begins.

When I have flaky connections, I get so many pauses (of songs I have downloaded) that I just deleted the app alltogether.
