Barnes And Noble's New Nook Wireless Book Reader Confronts Amazon's Electronic Books Reader
With proprietary formats, when you pay for a novel for digital download from Amazon it will come in their specific file format .AZW that only allows you to read it on amazon's wireless reading device. So if in the future, obviously after you have have checked out all the digital book readers for the latest model at the best price, you then decided you wanted to swap digital book readers to an alternative make, your library of digitally downloaded books turn out to be worthless. Make your own mind up if that's fair or not.
That scenario has been a large snag for the industry in general but also for the manufacturers of other digital book readers in particular. They where on no account going to be able to offer the number of titles Amazon where competent of doing and so this helped sales of the Kindle . And so they present aid for extra file formats, mainly the Adobe .PDF, which is a favorite format for free ebooks, but this standard does not imitate a scaled down version of text that well as it was always meant to be reproducing copy at an A4 size, just right for the DX and iLiad readers but not so for the smaller 5,6 and 7 inch displays.
Therefore came the Epub standard, an open source format intended to show text. It is fast emerging as the format of the future and has gained support from the likes of Google Library who shall be releasing their full one million titles, of which the bulk are at no cost to download, in this format. Barnes and Noble will also be doing the same as will the Sony-Store.
Accordingly you should see that any electronic book reading device that has backing for this standard will be future resistant. B&N's Nook Wireless Portable Reading Device has .Epub support, as does the Sony Daily Edition, and so you can down load your e-books from wherever you decide, paid for or free, moreover not simply from the manufacturer of the digital ebook reader , which is the case with the Amazon kindle digital e book reader.
