Book Formats
Books are available in both paper copy and eBook (digital) formats. Although there are times when I prefer to have a paper copy at my disposal, I highly recommend ebooks for a number of reasons:
- Availability: Shop online to purchase and immediately download your copy over the internet
- Price: Digital copies are typically cheaper than paper copies.
- Interactive: Digital copies may offer interactive content that is simply not available in paper copy form
- Multiple Devices: Digital copies can be viewed on or downloaded to multiple devices
- Progress: Reading progress is synchronized between devices assuming internet services are available while reading.
- Environment: Ebooks are environmentally friendly.
- Storage Space: Multiple eBooks can be stored on a single device saving valuable shelf space.
- Portability: A single device is less cumbersome to carry than several paper copy books
- Sources: Digital products are immediately available from a variety of sources including Amazon, Packt, Kobo, and Apple iBooks
- Cross-Platform: Compatible readers such as Kindle make it easy to read your book from virtually any device.
- Online: Programs such as Amazon’s Kindle Unlimited provide free access to books with certain restrictions.
- Subscription Services: As a Mapt-Pro subscriber, you can download a free ebook everyday. Visit packtpub.com for more details on this extremely cost effective program.
While paper doesn’t require batteries, the list above makes for a compelling case to consider the digital option.
