What is streaming?
Streaming refers to any media content 'live or recorded ', delivered to computers and mobile devices via the internet and played back in real time. Podcasts, webcasts, movies, TV shows and music videos are common forms of streaming content.
How does streaming works?
Music, video and other types of media files are prearranged and transmitted in sequential packets of data so they can be streamed instantly. And unlike traditional downloads that are stored on your device, media files are automatically deleted once you play them.
We need reliable and fast speed internet connection, a subscription to a streaming service or app and a compatible device.
What is Live Streaming?
Live streaming is the broadcast of an event over the internet as it happens. Awards shows, sports, video games and special one-time events are the most popular types of live streaming.
Social media platforms and others broadcast everything from celebrity events and promotions streaming to streaming between users. You can live stream on any compatible smartphone, tablet, TV, computer or gaming console with a relatively fast internet connection.
