Everyone has their own preferences, as idiosyncratic as they may be. I tend to put together my own books, and generally adopt a slightly less cavalier style than many ebook readers in this community would. Though I have gotten lazier more recently (buying paper books instead), many of my books are well-crafted compared to what the ebook standard is.

Even so, there are many here who would much prefer the page on the left in my picture to the page on the right. Some of those people would choose it just to be contrary, while others have developed a taste for narrower fonts or a denser (blacker) text block. Others still have become accustomed to the rather primitive styles of most ebooks and find more advanced things to be gaudy and distracting.

So I guess choice is king, but it certainly would be nice to have some measure of quality in the first place.
