Digital Audio Distribution refers to the process of delivering audio content, such as music and podcasts, over the internet. This method allows creators to share their work with a global audience through various platforms, including streaming services like Spotify and Apple Music. It has transformed how people access and consume audio, making it more convenient and immediate. The distribution process typically involves encoding audio files into digital formats and uploading them to online platforms. These platforms then manage the delivery to users, often providing features like playlists and recommendations. This system has enabled independent artists to reach listeners without traditional record labels.
