And it surprised me a bit that book's availability is not one of the main features when choosing an ereader, not as per this poll. Which makes me think: or users simply do not care if they will find their favorites books online or not...
I think it's because when it really comes down to it, for most people there is no appreciable difference in selection between the readers. Yes amongst the several million books there's stuff in one format and not the other, but the chance of the occasional obscure singular format books you want being consistently on the same side of the fence is so unlikely that you may as well not worry about it unless it regards one particular work or body of work that you can't live without.

edit: I shouldn't suggest that only 'obscure' books don't make it to both formats. Just sayin' no matter which way you go, you may run into something that's only available for the other.
