I still think my post stands. I don't disagree with you on the formatting issue, in fact I made a post in the General Discussion section a while back asking where people find the best-formatted ebooks, and was informed that all epubs sold everywhere are the same, and it's just the device showing things differently. I don't know if that's true, as in the same book's sample from different bookstores I found dropcaps and embedded fonts in Nook app and better scene spacing in Google ebooks vs. Kobo, etc. but maybe what you are saying is the same thing.. it's the device/application/software that renders the same epub differently. In that case especially, I still think my point stands. Yes it sucks that each bookstore's app will display things differently, some better than others, but at least you can buy an epub (setting aside the issue of B&N's DRM) and read it on any device except for Kindle. so if Amazon were to go epub, at least there would be uniform format, if not uniform formatting.
