Following the recent PS5 UI / UX Unveiling and PS5 XML List updates we now have reports of the first PS5 PKGs surfacing, including a Share Factory Studio PS5 Package for PlayStation 5 Scene developers to examine in comparison to the PS4 PKGs most are already familiar with. 
Download: IP9100-PPSA01280_00-SFSRELE000000100.pkg (2.3 GB - Share Factory Studio PS5 PKG) / IP9100-PPSA01280_00-SFSRELE000000100_sc.pkg (32 MB) / IP9100-PPSA01280_00-SFSRELE000000100-DP.pkg (281 KB - PS5 Title Patch PKG)
Earlier today we saw some PS5 Unboxing Videos and PS5 Games Live on Sony's Servers, and from the IP9100-PPSA01280_00-SFSRELE000000100.json above:
And from UP9000-PPSA01411_00-MARVELSSMMORALES.json:
Below is a First look at PS5 digital content distribution system from cuevavirus, to quote:
I was able to obtain the pkg url for Share Factory Studio, a free application for PS5 available on the PlayStation new webstore.
Which returns the following PS5 XML Data:
The UUID in the URL is identical on two different accounts. We can infer several things from this:
1. Digital content is distributed without authentication, same as previous platforms.
2. Application and patch distribution are merged. It is no longer possible to obtain the base version application after a patch has been released.
3. It will no longer be possible to compute the update url from the title ID, instead a random UUID is used.
The json manifest in the xml contains two split files. However they are not the same file split along 4GiB boundaries. The first file has magic {0x7F, 'F', 'I', 'H'}, previously not seen. The second file has magic {0x7F, 'C', 'N', 'T'}, same as PS4 PKGs.

From PlayStationDev.wiki in comparing the Param.json, to quote: "PSP/PS3/PS4/Vita used a param.sfo file for metadata. PS5 games have a similar file, but instead of .sfo it is now .json.
There are three types of param.json: param.json, origin-param.json and target-param.json. What the differences are and what they are for is currently unknown."

As expected, roughly translated: "you can't use this content.. to use the content, buy it."
