Not much really. Just the fact that the "free encyclopaedias" are actually FREE. The other encyclopaedias you are talking about, I assume would cost money, and they would usually contain more information depending on what brand you purchase and if the sources are reliable (you trust them).
Erich Wiegand has written: 'Omnibus' -- subject(s): Encyclopedias and dictionaries, German, German Encyclopedias and dictionaries
Sadanushi Shigeno has written: 'Hifuryaku' -- subject(s): Japanese Encyclopedias and dictionaries, Chinese Encyclopedias and dictionaries
