I'm just curious what are the differences (not so much technically, but as a reader would experience them) between epub and rtf?

I have a lot of rtf files, and I'm in the habit of converting them to epub to use them with Stanza. But the Sony eReader can recognize rtf as well as epub--would there be any compelling reason to convert to epub in this case?

The one thing I have noticed is that my converted epub files tend to be smaller than the original rtf.
