And that's IE for you, too -- and yeah, it sucks, but you're not going to get ALL the IE users out there to just up and switch, it's an absurd fantasy to think that you will. So either you
annoy all those potential readers out there, or you accommodate them -- and usually it's not really all that big a deal to figure out how to accommodate them. Think of it like weighing how much of a relatively minor "annoyance" it would be for you, one person, the designer, to make your book work in that app, compared to the
major annoyance it is for the
millions of people who think your book sucks, and you suck as a designer, because your book looks so awful in their app (and they don't know any better, they're clueless that it's the apps fault and that they should switch).
Hey, in the end, you can do whatever you want, but as the saying goes... just sayin'.
