What is the meaning of DLC?

I hear and see in the gaming community this term a lot. Even in questions here in Arqade

What does it mean?

What are some examples of DLC?


DLC means Downloadable Content:

Downloadable content can be of several types, ranging from aesthetic outfit changes to a new, extensive storyline, similar to an expansion pack. As such, DLC may add new game modes, objects, levels, challenges or other features to a complete and already released game.


Most probably they are talking about: DownLoadable Content

such as addons or software expansions.
