What is an MBP file?

MBP files mostly belong to Mobipocket Reader by Amazon. MBP file extension is developed by Mobipocket to store eBook notes information.

  • Main Use: Mobipocket (owned by Amazon) is associated with developing the widely popular HTML based e-book format MOBI. Mobipocket created MBP files to store highlights/annotations information found within eBooks. The MBP file in itself is very small (around 1 Kb) and saves annotations, highlights, and other notes that are automatically created when a MOBI or AZW eBook file is opened on Amazon Kindle devices. The MBP gets auto-updated as the user reads the eBook and is stored in the same directory as that of the eBook file with the eBook's file name. The MBP file is a metadata file and cannot be considered as an eBook file in itself.
  • Other Uses: MBP file extension is also used as a disk burning project file by Medialink, a multimedia authoring and CD/DVD burning application developed by CyberLink. The MBP project file contains a set of video snippets and transition effects. It does not contain any real multimedia data but only references to external multimedia. The MBP project file can be edited and burned onto optical discs using CyberLink MediaShow software on Windows PCs. MBP file extension is also linked to another CD/DVD burning tool MAGIX Speed developed by MAGIX. The MBP CD/DVD burning project files consist of an XML-like set of all files and folders meant for burning onto an optical disk. These MBP files are saved by default in the My Documents\MAGIX Projects sub-directory.
