So FBreader supports the EPUB "standard"... unless the book has DRM, or the book is a kepub or iBook.
Which it never is/does, thanks to tools, Calibre, Dropbox, and the fact that I don't buy any media from Apple.

Not sure what's so hard to understand about creating a book acquisition workflow - which works for me - which targets using the software I like, and doesn't fret about the vendors I don't buy from.

And regardless, it is the height of simplicity to convert a mobi7/mobi8-formatted book to an EPUB, so you can read your Amazon purchases on Kobo/Nook/Sony/Marvin/FBreader/Mantano/Moon+/anything under the sun. (Because calibre is the only product available that fully supports all formats.) That's what I call real choice.
Calibre is already central to my book acquistion/distribution workflow. I don't get what you're so upset about.
