Answer 1

The reason The Long Tail has been largely ignored by physical “Bricks & Mortar” retailers is:

They do not have enough shelf space for Long Tail products.

Physical retailers have limited space to display products, which often leads them to prioritize bestsellers and mainstream items that are more likely to sell quickly, rather than a wide variety of niche or less popular products that represent the Long Tail.
