Video is an electronic medium for the recording, copying, playback, broadcasting, and display of moving visual media.

A demo (from "demonstration") is a song or group of songs recorded for limited circulation or reference use rather than for general public release.

A demo is a way for a musician to approximate their ideas in a fixed format, such as cassette tape, compact disc, or digital audio files, and to thereby pass along those ideas to record labels, record producers, or to other artists.

In music, sampling is the act of taking a portion, or sample, of one sound recording and reusing it as an instrument or a sound recording in a different song or piece.

A music video is a short film integrating a song and imagery, produced for promotional or artistic purposes.

Modern music videos are primarily made and used as a marketing device intended to promote the sale of music recordings.

There are also cases where songs are used in tie in marketing campaigns that allow them to become more than just a song.

Tie ins and merchandising could be used in toys or marketing campaigns for food and other products.

Although the origins of music videos date back to musical short films that first appeared in the 1920s, they came into prominence in the 1980s when MTV based their format around the medium.

Prior to the 1980s, these works were described by various terms including "illustrated song", "filmed insert", "promotional (promo) film", "promotional clip", "promotional video", "song video", "song clip" or "film clip".

A music download is the digital transfer of music via the Internet into a device capable of decoding and playing it, such as a home computer, MP3 player or smartphone.

According to a Nielsen report, downloadable music accounted for 55.9% of all music sales in the US in 2012.
