Online stores specialising in books were probably the first 'etailers' to be noticed by the general public.
Some of these online book stores soon added music CDs, DVDs and videos and then computer games to their stock, while at the same time a number of highstreet music and movie retailers also began selling their products online.
The purchasing of books, CDs, DVDs and increasingly computer games from online stores is probably still the most common way that people shop online.
