I don’t like to read on my smartphone for extended periods of time, but it’s great for short periods of inactivity. When my books are stored on the cloud, I can whip out my smartphone at any time and sync it to the same place where I left off with my Kindle and keep reading. Because this book wasn’t in the cloud, I couldn’t sync up to it and read it on my smartphone. I was out doing something and had unexpected down time that I could have used to read, but I don’t carry my Kindle with me throughout my normal daily routine. I got annoyed recently when I was reading a really good book that wasn’t in my cloud. For those books, I was just storing them on my hard drive, but I’ve started sending those to my cloud also.

I also have some e-books that I’ve obtained outside of Amazon, such as books from the Baen free library. When it comes to storing the actual ebooks themselves, I just store them on my cloud through Amazon. So.plugging the Kindle into the PC, and transferring is (so far) the most efficient for me. If there's an alternative that involves a WIFI connection, I don't have one. With respect to "sending" books to the Kindle the only method I know of for doing so is via email, which requires me to go through AMZ and then download to the device. I understand the value of collections to some/most ebook readers, but I don't have the time/inclination to start more data entry for ebooks, whether on the Kindle or in Calibre, in order to create collections, which I would then have to maintain. I have 18 years of data entry for the just-under 11,000 books in my library, into an Excel spreadsheet that lets me sort my books by author, title and category (SFK = Scifi Kindle, SFH = hardcover, etc.). The only ones on my Kindle are the ones I haven't read yet.about 650.Īs far as collections go, I don't have any. Between AMZ purchases and elsewhere I have about 2000 ebooks.
And then send them from there, as needed, to the Kind."

Just a few thoughts based on my experience (particularly with having had to replace a Kindle). Using the app only allows you to read books from the Cloud, in theory, but if you go to a non-AMZ-purchased mobi (say, scifi/fantasy from Baen) you just double-click the file and that enables you to read on your computer. The other thing is that at least with Kindle, you can download the app. At roughly 1500 books from AMZ and even with managing an average of starting a new download every 30 seconds that's 750 minutes of download time.Īs opposed to just using USB to copy everything (or selected things) quickly. I don't trust the Cloud because it's someone else's servers and I have no idea who has access to that.Īlso, if something happens to your Kindle (don't know about Nooks or other devices) so far as I know there's nothing to "click" and have AMZ download all your purchases automatically. The "good" it does to have all your ebooks on your personal computer (instead of/in addition to) the device and/or "the Cloud" is that you have an immediate backup copy of everything. What good does that do? Those eBooks are only readable on that s."
