But even when LITs, Mobi, and PDB were the only formats in broad use there was no developer action on supporting LIT. I'm not going to try to psychoanalyze anybody but since both Coolreader and FBReader originated on Linux and LIT bears the stamp of "eee-vile" Microsoft and Mobi of "eee-vile" Amazon...

Not holding my breath to see either (or pdb, now owned by B&N) supported on Coolreader.

Most of my commercial LITs are from BAEN, anyway. So it's no effort to redownload them as epub or Mobi.
