EPUB or MOBI (Kindle) FORMAT?
- The Epub format is a common standard supported by many manufacturers.
- However, an epub for one device may not work on a competitor’s device, for example, Apple versus Nook.
- The mobi format, Kindle, is used only by Amazon, but Amazon supports it on many devices with apps.
- The mobi format can be read on almost any device by downloading a free Kindle reader from Amazon.
- Paradoxically, the mobi format is the most transportable and convenient format even though it is also the most exclusive format.
- Can’t decide between epub or mobi? Buy a Kobo that supports both formats.
The Battle Between Formats Is Over
- Epub has won the battle.
- Amazon has switched to the Epub format from the Kindle format.
- Amazon is phasing out the Kindle format and no longer accepts it for new ebooks.
- However, lots of books are and will remain in Kindle format, not Epub.
Still More Information
- Amazon stores your mobi files in the cloud for free, and you can read them on almost any of your devices (e-readers, tablets, smartphones, computers) by downloading a free Kindle reader.
- You do not need to own a Kindle-specific device to buy or read Kindle ebooks.
- Kobo offers similar services, and some of its devices read both epub and mobi formats.
- Barnes&Noble offers enhanced social networking features.
EBOOK FORMAT CONVERSION
1. You can convert ebook formats with Calibre.
- For example, you can convert Epub books to the Kindle format and vice versa.
- But this only works if the book is not copy-protected (DRM is the copy protection standard).
- Calibre’s interface and use of technical terms are not always user-friendly, but it is supported by donation so pay what you want for it.
- Calibre is constantly being improved and updated.
2. You can also convert formats for your ebooks using Online-covert.com.
- Online-convert.com requires no software downloading and does a good job at many formats.
- Again, this only works with ebooks that are not copy-protected.
