I wasn't implying that Google was somehow lazy. Far from it - which I think was well indicated by the part of the sentence you've left unquoted.

The app does, however, lack something I would like to see. After all, I *can* currently use the Nook app to read DRM-protected epubs purchased from Google Play but not vice versa. And I don't think it's unreasonable (if perhaps naive or overly optimistic) to want to be able to read ALL my e-book acquisitions from a single reading app.

And while being able to integrate Amazon purchases into the mix would be the biggest hurdle to overcome, it's certainly not impossible.
