If I ever decided to replace my independent-brand eReader with a Kindle, it would not be a "vague possibility" that I would need to convert my hundreds of epubs to mobis, it would be a certainty. Those I bought from Baen I could simply redownload in the new format. Those from Diesel, not so much.

But given that I like my physical page-turn buttons, the chances of me moving to Kindle are negligible anyway.
