The problem with digital books

Digital books are stuck in the past. PDFs and EPUBs are just digitized paper - static, non-interactive, unintelligent.

Static Content

Text that doesn't respond to your questions

No Context

Literal translations that miss nuances

Passive Reading

Same experience as decades ago
