Bookzz and Top 10 Websites like Bokzz

Bookzz was one of the free websites to read and download ebooks for free. It was a top-ranked website as its database was filled with millions of files. All of them were free and were available to download in different file formats. But many illegal ebooks and notes were available on this website without its publisher?s permission. And due to these issues, this site was taken down.

The word ebook is a combination of two English words. The word ?e? is used for ?electrical?. So, ebook means an electrical book or a book which we read by using electrical devices (eg: mobile, computer). Commonly ebook is known as an online book. It usually exists in Pdf, txt, docs and epub format. Now a day, Audio Book (mp3) is also used as an ebook.

Due to advances in modern technology, books are being replaced with ebooks. We don?t need to visit shops and libraries to find your favorite books and buy them, as it is time taking task. Now we only have to visit a specific website on a computer or mobile, search for book names, and simply read them online or download it for free. How simple it is?

Why bookzz.org was taken down?

Bookzz.org was taken down due to a few legal and privacy issues. Bookzz was not following ?DMCA? rules, and hence this site was removed from the internet. Now it can?t be recovered again. The only solution is to use its alternatives.
