Well, it would be easy until bandwidth and resources are considered.  44.1

audio would be consume massive resources as far as storage and transfers are

concerned.  Perhaps a bad idea.  Maybe not, though, if audio data can be

organized in chunks and looped.  Another possibility is utilizing Sound Fonts

and MIDI - this would reduce the need for large audio files (you would only

need a large Sound Font).
Just "thinking out loud" =)
