I got my wife a Kindle HD for Christmas and she was reading something about eBooks being stored on Cloud so she couldn't read them where she didn't have an internet connection.
Don't know if the article had said they were automatically stored on Cloud or if they could be stored on her Kindle.
So, my question is this, to start: If I download an eBook, doesn't it go onto my IdeaPad (She got it for me a year ago)? Or to some Cloud storage? Or is there a choice?
This takes me to my title question: Roughly how many eBook pages equal a kilobyte? What is the compression ratio, for example, from the book text to an eBook file.
I'm totally green when it comes to eBooks, although I've been using computers since the 80s.
Any information, just to satisfy my curiosity, will be appreciated. I normally download and use Bible software which include tons of books and articles. I have not downloaded any books for my android, tho. I do think it has a reader, tho. Actually, haven't spent an hour on it since I got it.
Many thanks,
