Add the Product then use the Attributes to setup an Option Name for:
Media Type

Option Values for:
Download
Sort Order 10
Filename
Days
Count

CD
Sort Order 20
Weight

Select Media Type
Sort Order 0
Default YES
Display Only YES

Now the customer has to select a valid media method and the Product is either the Download or the CD ...

Assuming that you have made an Option Name, and then went to the Option Value manager and added Option Value(s) for this Option Name ... go to the Attributes Controller and find your Product ...

Click on the Option Name in the left window and click on the Option Value in the right window ...

Add the filename, max days, max count and any price info that might be needed and click the Insert ...

Now what happens?

Hi. Just wondering, I sell only digital products. My products however come in various formats. Would I be able to use the attributes to allow the customer to choose which format they want? My products are machine embroidery designs - each format for a different type of embroidery machine.
