What is streaming?
In this module you will see how streaming works. Streaming technology allows us to view video content live or on-demand via the Internet. The data (images) are transmitted while the video is playing. It is therefore unnecessary to download the media.
Streaming:
- Multimedia via the Internet
- Live or on-demand
- Downloading unnecessary
- Viewing video while they are being transmitted
- Recording (almost) always impossible
