A server creates a steady flow of traffic that is read an processed by a recipient application.
Internet radio is a good example. The server creates one of more consistent streams of data and clients subscribe to the stream.
Net Runner just does a big information grab and hopes for the best. Most of the time it works great too. But it's not really streaming, it's just opening the file over the network.
