What is the Music Player Mockup ad format?

This is a screen recording of a music streaming app (like Spotify or Apple Music) showing a song playing, complete with album art, playback controls, and sometimes scrolling lyrics or playlists. Brands use it to promote audio products like headphones, speakers, or the streaming services themselves—basically anything where hearing the music is the point. It's a quick way to show "this is what you'll experience" without needing original video footage, leaning on the familiar interface people already trust.
