What Is Media Streaming


Media Streaming is a method of transmitting media, such as audio and video clips, across the internet without requiring the entire file to download before the file can be played. The file is played as it arrives on the user's computer. This can be resource-intensive for a shared server. It is recommended to use a VPS or dedicated server for video streaming or you can also place your videos on YouTube.com.
