Set 3 buttons on alert dialog, android?

I have a list view previewing a list of songs. On the onclick of a list item an alert dialog appears asking the user to play or download the song. The song is played from the url using media player class.

What i want to do is that after the user clicks play button he should also be able to stop the playback.

What i have in my mind is either change the name of the command play to stop after user had pressed play and stop appears to stop playing or if i can add a third button to alert dialog simply to stop it.

Please tell me how can i achieve it?

My list item on click code

     list .setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
    @Override
     public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view,int position, long id) 
        {
            songURL=songURL.get(position).toString();

            final Dialog dialog = new Dialog(context);
            dialog.setContentView(R.layout.custom_dialog);
            dialog.setTitle("Downlaod or Play?");
            pImage = (ImageView) dialog.findViewById(R.id.playImageView);
            pImage.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

                @Override
                public void onClick(View v) {
                    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
                    try {
                        MediaPlayer player = new MediaPlayer();
                        player.setAudioStreamType(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC);
                        player.setDataSource(songURL);
                        player.prepare();
                        player.start();
                        pImage.setImageResource(R.drawable.stop);
                    } catch (Exception e) {
                        // TODO: handle exception
                    }

                }
            });
            dialog.show();

         }});

Using a custom dialog is more user friendly and more easy in my opinion.
Just have a play button in the dialog. When pressed change the text to "Stop".
Here is a simple tutorial on custom dialog to get you going.
Hope this helps.
