The amount of memory your dealing with doesn't sound like a lot, so you
could keep doing what your doing.

Streaming is more efficient if you are playing many files of a largely
variable size. In the last project where I dealt with ogg files, we read
one ogg frame at a time (4K), decoded, and stored the decompressed data in
a temporary circular buffer. The read thread that is populating the
playback buffers fetched it's data from the circular buffer. When the
files are potentially large you have no choice but to use a mechanism such
as that.
