Abstract

This paper explores the transformative impact of digital platforms on content distribution networks. With the advent of digital technology, the landscape of content distribution has evolved significantly, offering both opportunities and challenges. The integration of digital platforms has facilitated the seamless flow of information, entertainment, and educational content across diverse devices and geographical locations. This study delves into the mechanisms through which digital platforms have reshaped content distribution networks, emphasizing the role of technological innovation, user engagement, and the evolving consumption habits of audiences. The analysis further examines the implications of this shift for content creators, distributors, and consumers, highlighting the need for adaptability, enhanced user experiences, and the management of digital rights. The paper concludes by proposing strategies for leveraging the potential of digital platforms to optimize content distribution networks while addressing the associated challenges.
