Difference Between Local & Session Storage and Audio Video

Local storage retains data even after the browser is closed and is shared across all tabs, while session storage only retains data for the duration of a tab's open session. The <audio> tag is designed for sound files, whereas the <video> tag is for video files and includes visual display capabilities. Both storage types and HTML tags have distinct use cases, accessibility, and security features.
