Tired of hearing this. Epub has an open standard... yes. But not one of the various devices or apps that support epub - nor even the various publishers of epub content - adhere to that standard in any open "we are the world" kind of way. They all put their own twists on the standard. So what you have are 15 bastard flavors of epub floating around.

Quite true. That why I said ePub would be better off without adobe
Still, i like the possibility to fix some stuff on the ePub. I would love the publishers to get to right, but..
And i'm making some book, i just need sigil, works a treat. Even better, i can just use good old zip program to fix the basic stuff

Having said that... I just don't care. I buy what I want, where I want, when I want. Epub, mobi, whatever... the world's big enough for both.

yes and no. Having multiple format, and drm is unless. Just make a pain the user's life. Forcing him to stick to his first choice. Or suffer the mess that is converting.

I don't share it, but at least I understand the need for wanting someone else to "like what you like". But I've never understood people that seem to have an inexplicable need for others to "hate what they hate".

I don't hate mobi. It's just that ePub provide me with convenience that mobi don't.
