The term "downloadable" refers to something that can be downloaded or obtained by downloading it from a computer, device or network. This means that instead of having to purchase physical media such as CDs or DVDs, one can obtain digital content like music, videos, software, books and other files through an internet connection and download them onto their devices for later use. The term is often used in relation to online stores, websites, apps or services where users can browse, select and purchase items that will be automatically downloaded onto their device once the transaction is complete.
