I wish it was, I REALLY wish it was, but this is just another betamax vs VHS war. Betamax was technologically superior, but VHS had the functionality that everybody wanted. Amazon is doing everything that the customer wants, from price point to availability (it's also winning over more and more authors). Do I want ePub to be sidelined? Of course not, but the reality is that it will become increasingly marginalised as the market moves towards Amazon's way of doing things.
