What are the advantages and disadvantages of e-book content?

 The advantages of the e-book content are as follows:-

• E-books have advantages over published books in that instant downloading can reduce transaction costs; 

• people’s accessibility to entire libraries will be dramatically increased; 

• and existing text will be searchable and easily integrated with new text via cutting and pasting. 

• They will also permit modularization down to the sentence and word level. 

• This can be much more easily updated or changed, resulting in lower production and distribution costs and longer-lasting work.

•  This should also increase opportunities for writers to publish, increase the availability of out-of-print works, increase the value of book archives, and reduce the cost of library functions in society, further democratizing access to books.

The disadvantages of e-book content are as follows:-

•  Unfortunately, the disadvantages are so far outweighing even this impressive list of advantages. 

• The required expensive and complex electronic devices are not by and large portable. 

• The reduced print quality onscreen makes them difficult to read; and there are multiple competing standards, uncertain business models, and issues of copyright and author royalties.
