When you open a media stream in Java ME it is usually buffered by Media API before rendering. Some devices, though, might play the stream as expected, but this is not the standard.

HTTP Live Streaming (HLS) is an industry wide standard where the client receives streaming audio/video from a standard HTTPD server where you have parked your media into a HLS friendly format. Apple pushes this although as a standard there are tools available to convert your media into HLS on the server side. Its independent of language and very efficient/flexible with respect to minimizing bandwidth requirements.
