streaming is the act of sending video and audio content in a compressed form over the internet, which will be displayed to small and big audiences/viewers. With streaming or streaming media, a viewer user doesn't have to wait for the file to download in order to view it. Instead, the media is sent in a continuous stream of data and is played as it arrives. The viewer needs a player, which is a special program that uncompresses and sends video data to the display and audio data to speakers. The player can be either an integral part of a browser or downloaded from the software maker's website. The feed can also be viewed on a mobile device that supports streaming.
A live stream can be created using either pre-recorded content or a camera/microphone capturing live events. A live stream functions much like a television channel or radio station. When you 'tune in', you see or hear whatever is being broadcast at that time.
A good example of a Live stream would be a local radio station broadcasting online at the same time as over the airwaves.

What site can you watch the waltons on without streaming or downloading?
That's simply not possible. The ability to do anything online requires downloading information. Every website you view to do anything is downloading the information you are seeing before displaying it. In the case of watching a video you will always be required to download it. Streaming is simply a variation of downloading where you watch the information while it is downloading and than the temporary files you were viewing are removed from your computer when you are done. If you are not streaming or downloading, you do not have an internet connection and can not do anything online.

The general term for such things is "streaming", meaning that it is played before it is entirely finished downloading. For example, YouTube videos are also streamed to users. In both cases, the files are actually downloaded to your computer in a temporary folder, you just don't need to wait for them to finish downloading before you can watch/listen to them.
