Both Kindle/mobi and Nook/epub are at bottom html documents. The only real difference I see between them is that the former wants a single file while the latter wants a file for every chapter or section.
And one's a compiled, binary database file while the other is zipped up text files.

The difference between epub/mobi is more like the difference between an interpreted python/perl script and an executable compiled from source-code.

(None of the above should be construed as promoting one over the other—scripts/executables or mobi/epub)
