What's the difference ...

... between an ebook downloaded from vyrso.com and the same book downloaded from Logos.com?

I'm assuming that a vyrso book can be opened in Logos 4, right? If so would it be reasonable to assume that the tagging and cross referencing usually expected from a Logos book are also available in a Vyrso version of that same book (or downloaded from Vyrso.com)?

Case in point: Return to Rome: Confessions of an Evangelical Catholic which is on Vyrso.com and also available as part of Baker Academic Catholic Theology Collection

Thanks

You are correct that a Vyrso book can be opened in Logos 4 however the big thing is the tagging and other big time work that Logos puts into the actual Logos version. The Vyrso books don't index or anything meaning that if you do a search the Vyrso books will not show up at all. Vyrso books are just meant to be read and have very little functionality in Logos. Vyrso also has its very own eReader.

Yes.

No, but see below.

If you want that book (or the other one that's on Vyrso) but not the rest of the collection, rush off to buy it NOW. It would normally have been removed when the prepub was added, and it is in all likelihood only a matter of time before it will be. And the good news is you will probably get a free update to Logos quality when that ships. (No guarantee, but they've hinted at it.)
