You mean TO your computer since my computer - much like my home in the case of the DVD etc - doesn't have the file/item before they allow me to d/l.
As for locality I really don't see the difference between ordering DVDs/pBooks via my browser and doing the same for eBooks [I am still in EU/home and they are in US*] in fact BoB I think send the d/l vie email does this mean in your reasoning they have "shipped" the eBooks to me? In short the difference is only the transportation method and IMHO all things considered its a difference without distinction[goods/bytes].
