gigabytes

A gigabyte is a unit of measurement for digital information, like the size of a file or how much space something takes up on your computer.

You might see the word "gigabyte" when someone's talking about their phone storage. They'll say they've got 256 gigabytes of space left over after installing all their favorite apps and games. Or you could be looking at a music streaming service that offers songs in various bitrates, like 128 kilobytes per second or 320 kilobits per second, but also mentions the option to download songs in higher resolutions, maybe up to 24-bit, which is roughly equivalent to two gigabytes of audio data.
