To be honest, that stuff is why I keep looking toward Kobo readers with one eye. They have more fonts than the Kindle, and you can adjust how they look. If you're STILL not happy, you can load your own fonts. (However, the adjustments don't work on those, or so I've been told.)

There are a few things that keep me away from Kobo:
1. Kobo wastes a lot of screen space with line height and headers and footers.
2. It's an EPUB reader, but many functions only work with their KEPUB format. It seems that the internals of AZW3 are closer to EPUB than KEPUB, and the AZW3 format seems to be understood better at this point. If I have to convert from EPUB, then I'd rather convert to the better known format.
3. The fracking bugs that always crop up... at least the ones I see when lurking in the Kobo forum. (I rarely post there, because I don't have a Kobo, but I do read it.)
