Add streaming and event sounds

When a movie is downloading from an Internet source, a streaming sound can begin to play as soon as the beginning of the sound file has downloaded. Such sounds are especially suited for continuous background sounds.

Event sounds must download completely and load into RAM before playing; event sounds are useful for buttons. In this section, you'll learn how to accomplish the following tasks:

| Add a streaming sound to your movie
| Add an event sound to a button

To complete this section, you can either continue to work on your mystiletto.fla file, or you can browse to your Flash MX application folder and open Tutorials/FlashIntro/stiletto6.fla. If you do use the stiletto6.fla file, save the file with a new name in your My_Stiletto folder to maintain an unadulterated version of the original file.
