Streaming Services

Streaming services are digital platforms that deliver content—such as videos, music, or live broadcasts—over the internet in real-time or on-demand. Unlike traditional media, which requires downloading files or broadcasting at scheduled times, streaming allows users to access content instantly on various devices, including computers, smartphones, tablets, and smart TVs.

Streaming services typically operate on a subscription model, offering users unlimited access to a library of content for a monthly fee, though some services also feature ad-supported free content. Popular examples include Netflix, Hulu, Spotify, and Amazon Prime Video. These platforms have transformed the way audiences consume media, providing greater convenience and a vast array of choices, and enabling content creators to reach global audiences without the constraints of traditional distribution methods.
