Why would Amazon even want to enable reading of competitor ebooks?. They want a monopoly and, if anything, would probably want to make it even less possible to read calibre converted epub ebooks or run apps to read them.
From the reader's viewpoint, there should be a standard DRM protected eBook design to be able to buy eBooks from anywhere and read them on any device from any manufacturer.
So far as I know, print books never did require just one brand of glasses to read them.
@Blossom,
If you really want perfect compatibility with the AMAZON Kindle Fire, you may have to get used to just buying Amazon eBooks. They have MILLIONS of ebooks almost half of which are FREE. Plus, if you buy Amazon Prime ($ 80 per year), you get one free eBook per month which normally costs money and free 2 day shipping on all Amazon products without any order minimum.
Prior to 1955 I only purchased Book of the Month Club print books. After 1990 I only purchased Microsoft Reader eBooks. Then I switched in 2007 to Sony eBooks (epub) only. Now I only buy Amazon eBooks. One just has to adjust to the reality of the ever changing eBook market.
