What is 'Downloadable' checkbox in Item->Online Content Tab?

In Item Record->Online Content, there is a 'Downloadable' column.

Before b2005

For Content object, 'Downloadable checkbox is always checked, it is a read-only column and cannot be change by the admin.

This Read-Only Downloadable check-box means this content object is potentially downloadable when the offline setting is enabled for the item.

It is confusing to admins as this checkbox is visible even if Offline player is not enabled for this item.

It is applied to all Content Objects entities. In the other hand, as seen in above screenhot, Quiz entity are not downloadable materials.

When the item is set for offline player (Online Content->Settings button), the zip file should be designed to conatins all element listed as 'Downloadable'.

This 'Downloadable' option cannot be removed.

From b2005

Starting from b2005, the Downloadable checkbox now can control whether the specific content object can be downloaded or not.

If 'Available for Offline Player download' is checked and URL for offline download is filled, the Downloadable checkbox will be editable. You can select this check box if you want users to be able to download online content (excluding exams) to Plateau Offline.
