HDRI vs Lighting Textures

What's the difference between Greyscalegorilla HDRI and light textures?
HDRI
Greyscalegorilla HDRI are panoramic images of real world locations and true-to-life studios and skies. HDRI quickly create environmental lighting in 3D, whether that is in a studio, outdoors, or even in space.

Area Light Maps
100+ textures of authentic studio lights with realistic reflections. Softboxes, light grids, fresnel, ring light, LED fixtures, bounce cards, and colorful abstracts.
Gobos
Over 75 light textures that can transform your 3D lights into realistic flashlights, windows, blinds, water caustics, lines, trees, and more.
Bokeh
120 bokeh texture maps that simulate the stunning blur and color fringing seen in real-life photography.

20 animated light texture loops that will add the look of moving trees, water caustics, and a variety of windows.
