  網路廣播本質為通過網際網路分發媒體檔案。最早的網路廣播相當於一個線上的音樂會,最早的一個例子是蘋果公司與企業家Michael Dorf和Andrew Rasiej合作的網路廣播組。他們與蘋果公司的David B. Pakman在1995年7月17日至22日合作推出了麥金託什紐約音樂節。此活動的音訊網路廣播由超過15個紐約市的俱樂部合辦。蘋果公司之後在1996年6月10日還舉辦了金屬樂隊 on June 10, 1996 live from Slim's in San Francisco.  1995年,Benford E. Standley製作了歷史上第一批音訊/視訊網路廣播(之一)。  On October 31, 1996, UK rock band Caduseus broadcast their one-hour concert from 11pm to 12am (UT) at Celtica in Machynlleth, Wales, UK – the first live streamed audio and simultaneous live streamed video multicast – around the globe to more than twenty direct "mirrors" in more than twenty countries.  In September 1997, Nebraska Public Television started webcasting Big Red Wrap Up from Lincoln, Nebraska which combined highlights from every Cornhusker football game, coverage of the coaches' weekly press conferences, analysis with Nebraska sportswriters, appearances by special guests and questions and answers with viewers.  1998年8月13日,一般意義上的第一次網路廣播婚禮由Alan K'necht與Carrie Silverman在加拿大多倫多舉辦。  On October 22, 1998, the first Billy Graham Crusade was broadcast live to a worldwide audience from the Raymond James Stadium in Tampa Florida courtesy of Dale Ficken and the WebcastCenter in Pennsylvania. The live signal was broadcast via satellite to PA, then encoded and streamed via the BGEA website.  The first teleconferenced/webcast wedding to date is believed to have occurred on December 31, 1998. Dale Ficken and Lorrie Scarangella wed on this date as they stood in a church in Pennsylvania, and were married by Jerry Falwell while he sat in his office in 林奇堡.  Virtually all major broadcasters now have a webcast of their output, from the BBC to CNN to Al Jazeera to UNTV in television to Radio China, Vatican Radio, United Nations Radio and the World Service in radio.  On November 4, 1994, Stef van der Ziel distributed the first live video images over the web from the Simplon venue in Groningen. On November 7, 1994, WXYC, the college radio station of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill became the first radio station in the world to broadcast its signal over the internet.  包含字幕的翻譯版本可以使用同步多媒體整合語言(SMIL)。

  有一類網路廣播是對婚禮的廣播。它使夫婦的家人和朋友可以在網際網路上實時觀看婚禮。它有時用於在異國舉辦的婚禮,例如坎昆和Riviera Maya、夏威夷州或加勒比,因為其他人一同旅行來親自參加婚禮是相當昂貴和困難的。  通過網路廣播播放葬禮也是一些殯儀館提供的服務。雖然它已存在近十年,更便宜的寬頻、旅行費用上漲以及對伊拉克和阿富汗的部署都導致了這種現象的增加。
網路廣播()是使用流媒體技術、通過網際網路將單個內容源分發給眾多同時收聽或觀看者的媒體呈現方式。網路廣播可以是實況或按需分發。基本上,網路廣播是通過網際網路進行“廣播”。
