I'm sure other may have come across this and can offer a solution 
(hopefully different and easier to implement than what I'm thinking).

I am building a joomla website and part of it needs to have an iTunes 
like interface where visitors can listen to music, and buy it. I'm using 
virtumart for the shopping cart. I can't seem to find an mp3 player for 
joomla that keeps the locations of the files completely hidden from the 
end user, thus opening up the possibilities for people to steal the 
music. Here's the conclusion I've come to: a flash interface (because if 
the results end up in the swf, and not the html, then they are not 
visible to the end user and they don't show up in the page source) that 
calls the database, and stores the data within flash or through a 
temporary xml file (created by a php script) that the visitor would have 
no knowledge of, and that also acts as a music player, with each row of 
the database results being a particular song/piece of music that can be 
played by clicking on it (or preferrably double clicking, if possible) 
and added to the shopping cart with another click.

I've looked at the available mp3 players for joomla and they do not fit 
my needs. Am I missing something? Have I overlooked something?

Also, does flash integrate easily into joomla in a component? Are there 
other issues I should be aware of as I build out this project? Thanks,
