Using the Media API's.

Android supports playing audio and video under the android.media package.

At the heart of the android.media package is the android.media.MediaPlayer class.
The MediaPlayer class is responsible for playing both audio and video content.The content for
this class can come from the following sources:

* Web: You can play content from the web via a URL.

* .apk file: You can play content that is packaged as part of your .apk file. You can package the media
content as a resource or as an asset ( with the assets folder ).

* SD card: You can play content that resides on the device's SD card.

The MediaPlayer is capable of decoding quite a few different content formats,including 3rd Generation
Partnership Project(3GPP, .3gp),MP3(.mp3),MIDI(.mid and others),Ogg Vorbis(.ogg),PCM/WAVE
(.wav), and MPEG-4(.mp4),RTSP,HTTP/HTTPS live streaming, and M3U playlists are also supported,
