PDFs are snapshots of pages - so they preserve the original text accurately.
With reflowable formats, there seem to be more typos and other errors. So while they are better presented, the actual content is inferior.
I don't think I've read any reflowable format ebook (freebie or commercial) that didn't have more errors than the PDF or pbook equivalent.
As an example, I've recently bought 'The Pillars of the Earth' commercial ebook, it's a great read - but I've encountered more 'typos' than I would expect to see in a pbook (or a PDF version).
