What are the advantages of Ebook downloads for the reader? First, storage. Especially when traveling, the ability to hold an effectively unlimited library in a laptop computer, or a large library on a memory stick is not to be dismissed. A bookworm stuck in transportation like a plane or train, or in a terminal can be a mightily unhappy person. This gets worse if the trip is for an extended period, yet not long enough to justify actually moving. Under those circumstances luggage can be very restrictive, and books, even paperbacks, can be bulky and heavy in groups. Second is portability, which isn’t quite the same thing. Once you have started reading a book, unless you can finish it at once sitting, you’ll find you want to be able to return to the book wherever you are when you have down time. With an Ebook, this is easier than carrying around a physical book for those with access to computers. Third, many Ebook formats are searchable. Especially when dealing with a large, complex work, a series or a mystery, the ability to quickly call up the novel and find the first appearance of a character or verify some fact in the setting can remove much uncertainty.

So, what is in it for publishers? Those in the physical book business can be divided into two camps concerning Ebooks. There are those in great fear that the ease of copying an Ebook will lead to massive piracy and harm book sales. There are those that believe Ebook sales help promote sales, and even that free, downloadable Ebooks are a good investment under some circumstances. That last view will typically be for authors with an existing body of work, who hope that a free sample will lead to sales of the rest of their products. It isn’t terribly unusual to have both a physical and electronic copy of a book. Physical books are still a comforting presence that some compare to old friends, and even with contemporary monitors, Ebooks are still more difficult to read in long stretches than a paper book.

Many of the great classics are now in the public domain. This can be used to pad out an initial selection of Ebooks to support the image of a mature instead of new business, and it can be used to draw the attention of those doing web searches for those stories so they can notice yours as well. Since these are Ebooks, this adds little additional work for the site administrator. This frees time to pursue new content, either by writing it or finding others to write it. This is an excellent start for youngsters who desire to be writers. Many professional writers say the secret is to throw away the first million words you write, which is how long it takes you to learn how to write. A stable of new writers with a good editor, capable of teaching good habits and providing guidance, can be an unparalleled resource.
