According to TechNet (2010), Digital media refers to audio, video and photo content (graphics) that has been encoded, in other words, digitally compressed. Encoding content involves converting audio and video input into a digital media file such as: Windows Media file. After digital media is encoded it can be easily manipulated, distributed and played by computers and is easily transmitted over the internet or computer networks.

Digital media is also for the convenience and entertainment of consumers. In earlier times, messages were once distributed by one particular source, who had great power over the information distributed (whether through newspapers, radio or television) and how it was perceived by the public. However, all that began to drastically change with the rise of computers and more importantly the internet.
