e-content

Online readable material

E-content is digital material distributed electronically—text, images, audio, video, or interactive media accessed through computers, phones, or other devices.

The term appears most often in educational and publishing contexts: The university is developing e-content for its online courses.

It encompasses everything from e-books and podcasts to streaming video and interactive learning modules.
