Duplicate Greek resources

Michel Pauw

The whole Perseus library is free, but I regularly see e.g. pre-pubs with Greek resources that will be available for sale.

For example: https://www.logos.com/product/34097/histories-of-alexander-the-great.

These Greek and Latin texts are also in Perseus, of course the LOEB English translation is not. But apart from the English translation, if I would be solely interested in the Greek text, what (Logos features?) would this resource have that are lacking in the Perseus edition of the text?

Think of the Perseus volumes as a sort of equivalent to vyrso ebooks and the Loeb volumes as Logos editions of the same. Better care and tagging in the latter.

Tagging for the Perseus volumes is actually quite good - massively better than Vyrso. References to thes works have always worked perfectly for me. Here's an example of a reference to Herodotus in NBD:

What exactly is lacking, I don't know. But for an average user like me, there's nothing that would justify buying the Loeb volumes.

That's why I wondered what functionality the Logos edition adds to the Greek text, as even the Greek text in Perseus is morphologically tagged. On the other hand there should be a reason why Logos puts a lot of efforts into creating a substitute, or would the fact that an English LOEB translation is added be the only benefit?
