ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Digital content

Digital content refers to things that you can find and access on the internet or other electronic devices, like pictures, videos, music, articles, games, and books. Imagine that the internet is like a giant library, and all the things you can find there are the books, but instead of flipping pages, you use a computer or tablet to look at them.

For example, if you watch a video on YouTube, that is digital content. If you download an eBook to your Kindle, that is digital content. If you listen to music on Spotify, that is digital content.

Digital content allows us to access and enjoy things in a more convenient and efficient way. It also makes it easier for people to create and share their own content with others. However, it's important to be careful when accessing digital content, especially if it's from unfamiliar or untrusted sources, because sometimes there can be viruses or other harmful things lurking in the content.
