Try this code in your file:

USE 

url = "your url name+filename.jpg,mp3,etc..."
FileName = "/sdcard/savefilename" // save in your sdcard


  try{
        java.io.BufferedInputStream in = new java.io.BufferedInputStream(new java.net.URL(url).openStream());
        java.io.FileOutputStream fos = new java.io.FileOutputStream(FileName);
        java.io.BufferedOutputStream bout = new BufferedOutputStream(fos,1024);
        byte[] data = new byte[1024];
        int x=0;
        while((x=in.read(data,0,1024))>=0){
            bout.write(data,0,x);               
        }
        fos.flush();
        bout.flush();
        fos.close();
        bout.close();
        in.close();
  }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
     }

and after you want to use MediaPlayer and create object of mediaplayer in your activity and play.

mp.reset();
mp.start();

like this.

Hope this will help you a lot.

There are plenty of questions of how to download a file in android. Just search.

On the other hand, you can use android's MediaPlayer to play the file from the internet without downloading it.
