Streamingmenetelmällä

Streamingmenetelmällä refers to a method of delivering and consuming digital media content, such as audio and video, over a network in real-time. Instead of downloading the entire file before playback, streaming allows users to start watching or listening as the data is transmitted. This process involves breaking the content into small packets that are sent sequentially. The user's device then reassembles these packets to play the media continuously.

This approach is widely used by various online platforms for services like music listening, movie watching, and live broadcasts. The key advantage is the ability to access content immediately without long waiting times for downloads. It also conserves storage space on the user's device as the content is not permanently stored. However, streaming requires a stable and sufficient internet connection to ensure smooth playback, as interruptions in the connection can lead to buffering or playback pauses. The quality of the stream often adapts dynamically to the available bandwidth, meaning it might be lower if the connection is weak.
