You're not counting the two days it takes to ship the CD from an Amazon warehouse.

It takes 2-3 days for my slide film to get processed.

Somehow I manage...

The interesting thing is that the line is blurred when I can gift the shrink-wrapped CD to a friend (certain titles only, of course) and still retain the downloaded version for myself.

I'm not holding my breath, but getting a Kindle copy of a physical book doesn't seem so far off.
