Too much trouble when there are already readers from Kobo, Nook, and Sony that support epub natively. The primary advantage of Kindle readers is that you can buy books from Amazon, but if you're someone like me who gets all of his books from the public domain then that's really not a point in the Kindle's favor. Yes, I know you can get Kindle versions of books in the public domain, but I find proprietary formats distasteful because of their non-portability. With a collection of epub files, I have a choice of several readers. With a collection of proprietary Kindle files, my choices are pretty much limited to Kindle or Kindle.
