digital distribution
Internet content delivery
Digital distribution is the delivery of media or software electronically rather than through physical copies.
Music, films, video games, and books are now commonly sold and delivered via download or streaming: The album was released through digital distribution only.
The model has largely displaced CDs, DVDs, and retail software boxes.
