How much do e-books cost?

Answer 1

Apple has two applications named "iBooks", both are free, but you have some system requirements:

• iBooks for iOS version 3.2 needs iOS 7, so this app only runs on newer i-devices (iPad 2, iPhone 4, iPod touch 5g, and newer);

  if you try to download iBooks on older devices, you will get prompted to load the newest compatible version instead (or cancel), so e.g. on an iPhone 4 still runing iOS 4.3.5, you get iBooks version 2.2 (931).

• iBooks for Mac was introduced with and needs the system version called Mavericks (that is Mac OS X 10.9) - in fact, you cannot even load it seperately; so that rules out every Mac that Apple chose to, e.g. the Mac mini 2,1 from around 2007.

While you might be able to jailbreak and/or hack some (not too much) older devices to run iOS 7 / Mavericks, this is limited to people with "hacker spirit".

So if your device fits into the category mentioned above, iBooks costs nothing extra, apart from download fee maybe.

Electronic books range in price depending on the retailer and the applications. Kindle for instance has a few different models ranging from 79.00-249.00. The Nook is also in the same price range the higher price means more applications.
