MRR or Master Resell Rights Contents allows you to Resell the content, as well as pass on the Resell License to your Customers. So, MRR Content can be resold without violating any copyrights.
There are three terms used in this space,
- RR or Resell Rights

RR allows only to Resell the content without passing on the Resell rights to your Customers. There is a difference here from MRR where you can pass on even the Resell rights to your Customers.

Stuck again on selling? I heard you think aloud that selling was for Amazon!
Yes, Amazon has a great marketing network where your Customers come to your ebooks not the other way round. But, you still need to select keywords to lead the Customers to your ebook. That is where the sales part comes in.
The general ranting on PLR Content is that it has made market competitive. But my take is that the market is still wide and ample opportunity exists for a thriving business.
