He does have an objection I consider valid: the FBReader ebook viewer displays Mobi documents, but can't handle the high compression variant. FBReader runs on an assortment of things MobiReader doesn't: http://www.fbreader.org/downloads.php

While I prefer Plucker for my own use, Plucker is largely PalmOS specific. (There is a product called Vade Mecum that reads Plucker files on PocketPCs, and FBReader reads Plucker files, too.)

I'm experimenting with MobiPocket because it seems to be the most broadly supported format. If I'm going to create ebooks for others to read, I want to make them available to the widest possible audience.
