Well, more like most end user don't care about format, until it slaps them in the face, because things have changed and they fell like moving.
Or : Hey, why can't I read the book I just bought ?
I happily used mobi. Then sony switched, the French editor switched to ePub, followed by pretty much everyone but amazon.

I didn't care much about adept. Bah, I can get rid of it. Until a wrong step with ade. Result : book unreadable, because authenticated to the temporary user, rather than my adobe ID. I had to re-pay the books again.
