A virtual packing list for facilitating electronic commerce transactions made over the Internet.

The virtual packing list contains a manifest of all the digital contents ordered by the consumer. The virtual packing list also optionally includes legal rights, files, and/or other documentation pertaining to the intellectual property corresponding to that commercial transaction. The order is filled based on the virtual packing list. Thereupon, the ordered digital contents, along with the virtual packing list, is downloaded to the consumer. The consumer can verify delivery of the digital contents based on the virtual packing list. Furthermore, the virtual packing list can be used in a host of post-order processes, such as accounting, return receipt, invoicing, inventory control, etc.
