That would not matter as the content would be served with the proper format.
Right now if I play the movie on my blu ray using the vudu app it is sent in with a different encoding then I get when I play it using the flixter app with google tv. This is from the same UV code redemption, so from the same purchase.
Mapped to ebooks, the kindle app would check the rights locker for the books,
and once granted download the content it could use, and the nook would do likewise. You don't worry about conversions because the right to the material is mapped to the proper format for you.
