streaming library

Online media catalog

A streaming library is a collection of digital content—movies, TV shows, music, or other media—available through an on-demand streaming service.

The term distinguishes what's accessible for streaming from content you might own or rent: The film just got added to Netflix's streaming library.

Services compete partly on the size and quality of their libraries.
