yeah that is one thing that is overlooked by Kindle owners with these types of conversations beyond just stripping DRM. Formating issues during conversions.
My buddy at work has a ton of books he considers unreadable due to converting issues. Such as just one long paragraph for the entire novel with no breaks. Indentations are all over the map and in wrong spots and breaks up sentences.
It doesn't happen on every single format conversion but it happens enough where it can drive you bonkers. He basically now just has his mobi site and uses Amazon. He curses me whenever I say I just borrowed a library book.
