Yes, I mean an online supermarket is a nice example of both: the wares
is what you buy, the service is the home delivery.

Anyway:

"ZDNet is reporting on another blockbuster year for online shopping.
Online shopping was up almost 30 percent over last year." From the
article: " Clothing was the top seller in terms of dollar amount, at
$5.3 billion total, up 42 percent from last year's revenue, the report
said. Computer hardware and peripherals showed the most growth, 126
percent, at $4.8 billion. Consumer electronics was the second fastest
growing category, garnering $4.8 billion, up 109 percent. People spent
$3 billion on books online, up 66 percent, and $2.3 billion on products
in the toys/video games category of hardware and software, a drop of 9
percent from last year, the study found. "

Yup, me too, mostly because I don't want to pay the extra for home
delivery, and also I like to get out of the house now and then.

I think it's 50/50 in my case: bought quite some on line, bought quite
some in shops. One program I bought in a shop, but all updates I bought
online.

Books are not that electronic.

"Clothing was the top seller in terms of dollar amount" (see above). I
know friends who did buy clothes on the Internet. I know people who
bought animals (pets: scorpions/tarantulas), plants (seeds), plane
tickets etc.

You mean show a "passport" on Usenet? I doubt if this will ever happen.
Moreover, the more governements and companies are trying to get control
over the Internet, the harder people work to find ways around this. Look
at P2P networks, there are already networks that are extremely hard (or
even impossible) to find out who is sharing what. (On the other hand,
the biggest problem for RIAA and co is probably the media, like 30G
rewriteable media, 100G, or more)

With specialized shop I mean a shop that, for example sells only photo
and video equipment v.s. a supermarket. Quite a lot of people prefer to
go to the first one, because they expect people that know about what
they are selling. Those people go there for the personal touch.

How is https on your site going to stop someone to create a copy of your
site for a phishing attack?

PayPal uses https for its transactions, yet many people have no problem
going to a site that according to the URL in the address bar doesn't
belong to PayPal, and enter their password...

It's like claiming that a holographic sticker on a CD is going to stop
software piracy.
