ebook
This term describes a specific medium of consumption rather than a change in literary content. It carries a neutral to positive connotation of convenience and portability, often associated with modern technology and environmental sustainability due to the lack of paper.
While the word is a compound of electronic and book, it is treated as a standard countable noun. It is commonly used in both casual conversation and professional publishing contexts to distinguish digital files from physical hardcovers or paperbacks.
