The book offers an excellent range of cases, themes, and issues that both ground these processes historically and address adjustments introduced by digital distribution." -- Amanda Lotz * author of We Now Disrupt This Broadcast *
"Attention media shoppers! Do not miss this truly original, eloquent argument for retail as an enduring, vital, and complex cultural space in entertainment's digital age."
