A bit of rant from Mike Crane but tons of great points.
I grow tired of the "universal ePub" claim when the plain facts in front of our noses clearly demonstrate that is not so. I use ePub because that's what Kobo uses and that's what the public library uses. I use Kindle books from Amazon most of the other time.
So, I don't mind which but, as Mike Crane points out, the overall Amazon Kindle experience is seamless (he calls it "zero friction"). I can't imagine Amazon wanting to start confronting users on every purchase if they want .epub or .awz file for their current purchase. I'd bet most Kindle users don't even know the books are DRMed because they've never been outside the garden with the file.
