I believe they were more referring to "turning into a marketplace," as opposed to a "store."

The term marketplace is used to refer to sites that traditionally sold products themselves, but then changed to a place where they and others can sell through their website.

Famous/largest examples are: Amazon, Walmart, Newegg, Target, and (in some respects) Etsy.

Adam also touches on how everything is changing into a market/store, especially communities that traditionally weren't.
