I'd assume it is for digital downloads.

If I am not purchasing LPs, I try to purchase MP3s/FLAC that I can copy and move around as I please.

Hm, digital downloads count as physical media? I might? be able to see the merit in that classification but I’m not entirely convinced.

I should comment AFTER I read the article.

If it is for physical sales only I would have to guess we are looking at things like cassette, USB drives and limited releases on other obscure formats like minidisk.
