E-books

E-books are digital publications of books. They can be read with specific hardware - an e-reader - or on a personal computer. E-books are usually available in .epub or .pdf files. Amazon (.azw), Mobi (.mobi) and other brands selling e-readers have proprietary formats.

Management

The management of e-books can be achieved by using special software suites like calibre.

DRM

Proprietary formats may but don't have to feature DRM. There are some software solutions for handling DRM like the no longer supported DeDRM by apprenticeharper or its supported counterpart DeDRM by noDRM. Due to legal issues in many places it is recommended to not use these or similar software. If the software is to be used by you check your local laws first.
