The acquisition of electronic files, such as ebooks, music, software, or videos, from Amazon’s online marketplace represents a readily available form of digital distribution. For instance, a customer might purchase an ebook and immediately access it on their Kindle device, eliminating the need for physical shipment.
This method offers several advantages. It provides instant gratification through immediate access to purchased content. Moreover, it contributes to reduced waste and carbon footprint by circumventing the manufacturing and shipping of physical products. The history of this distribution model reflects the shift towards readily accessible media and software acquisition.
