Ways to access eBooks:
Streaming: Reading books directly from the eBook vendor's site. Your device will need a constant internet connection.
Download: If a vendor allows you to download a book to your device, in most instances, a time meter is put in place (7 or 14 days depending on the vendor). Once the time meter has expired, the book you have downloaded will become inaccessible until you download it again.
Previews: Making only selected pages of a eBook available to you to read on a page-by-page basis. In Google Books these views are labeled Full View, Limited Preview, Snippet View, or No Preview Available. More details about these views.
