Short for Electronic Book Exchange, a DRM standard for protecting copyright in electronic books and for distributing electronic books among publishers, distributors, retailers, libraries, and consumers.

I am still wondering what happened to all the EBX files. How did they vanish from the world so suddenly when you can get other eBooks of extinct formats (The RB file format for example)?

Here is one example of an EBX file I am looking for (lost for 25 years along with another related book (Geronimo Stilton's Humorous Tails) published for Microsoft Reader (LIT format)):

Please note that this is my recreation as the real book cover is unknown but it's based on one picture which can be found in the "Gallery" section of this article on Lost Media Wiki - https://lostmediawiki.com/Geronimo_S...e_eBooks;_2000)

Thanks!
