STREAMING: Refers to the continuous transmission of data, typically audio or video.

BUFFERING: Currently downloading the first block of data. In streaming audio or video, it refers to bringing in an initial amount of data (filling the buffer) before playing or displaying the material. Having a larger amount of audio or more frames of video in the buffer than are actually needed at each precise moment compensates for momentary delays in transmission from the source. Otherwise, you would experience even greater gaps in the sound or video playback.

When a transmission line is always fast enough to keep up with playback, buffering is not necessary (like DSL or Cable Internet);
