Some multimedia files are too big to download conveniently. Either it occupies too much space on your hard disk, or they take too long to download, especially for those who are still operating on a modem.
Audio streaming works by receiving data in a continuous stream. As the data arrives you will experience buffering for a few seconds, before the actual playback starts. And as long as you are receiving data, you should have a continuos stream of audio transmission.
If the data does not come fast enough, or if there's congestion on the internet, rebuffering will occur. So you may experience a pause in transmission from time to time. Also the data you receive from audio streaming does not store in your computer permanently.
Streaming audio emits sound as it is being broadcasted. Many radio stations have an accompanying online feed, such as Radio1, KCRW, WGLS, and many more. This is perfect for music lovers from all over the world. Now they can follow their favorite bands, as they make radio appearances from various radio stations from around the world.
Many concerts are also archived on various websites. You can listen to these files by means of audio streaming.
