When computers were invented and went into “mainstream”, it would only take awhile when everything went digital (read: “computer able”) as well. Add the advent of what is now called the internet technology and then everything went “online”. It seems it is today’s mainstream media, with most businesses setting up web sites and stores setting up online merchant accounts so they cans start selling online.

I really think we reached a new level in multimedia. You have online shopping stores where everything can now be downloaded especially multimedia – songs, videos, movies and even books.

It is really true that digital publishing has changed the book publishing industry. With book readers like the Sony Nook, Amazon Kindle and Apple’s iPhone and iPad, it has certainly taken e-books into another level.

Ebooks have changed the economics of the publishing industry. Very soon, most people you know will have at least one and probably two convenient ways to read electronic books. They will take them on the plane or vacation to save space. They will read the books friends email them.
