Whats the difference between Video Streaming and Video Downloads?

0

With video streaming the video file remains on the server, the initial part of the video is copied to a buffer on your 3G phone and than after a short delay, starts to play and continues as the rest of the file is being pulled down. The video will not be stored in your phone. With video downloads, the entire video file is downloaded and stored in your phone before you will be able to view the video.
