I have a Nexus 7 2013 tablet running KitKat 4.4 and while the tablet does not have an SD card slot I use Nexus Media Importer with a cables to go adapter which allows me to use a USB flash drive with the tablet. The Nexus Media Importer has several different ways you could address/access the storage device connected to the USB port on the tablet. I'm currently using a 128GB USB flash drive with the adapter and it works fine for video play back at 1080p.

The Nexus Media Importer is an inexpensive app and can support flash card readers as well.

Would you consider having CC access the Nexus Media Importer?

Thanks in advance for your consideration.
As far as I can tell from reading the app's description and the reviews, it does not actually "mount" the external storage as part of the file system, instead making a "streaming" adapter. If true, then CC can't use it because it needs to be able to treat books as files. Reader apps must be able to do the same thing. Question: can you open a reader app, navigate to an arbitrary book file on the external storage, and open that book in the reader?
