Just read this and now I'm angry as well. The reason is that I just recently ordered an Opus (and haven't received it yet) to be able to read my Mobipocket collection.
Actually, I haven't been able to buy books on Fictionwise for a while now, since the books I want have been restricted to US only since about the time B&N bought them. So I don't get further hurt by this. But it's still annoying that the format died. Those big corporations (Amazon and B&N) kill everything that's good.
BTW, I do have some Secure Mobipocket books which are no longer available in my bookshelf and have been replaced by eReader versions, although this also happened quite a while ago, and was very annoying.
