Hey, Liviu!

Basically, a lot of the content you see in various proprietary formats started off as OPF at some point, then got munged into a proprietary format for a device. IDPF has never made a consumer-level format because the content providers couldn't come to a common DRM solution that they liked for all the possible devices.

Hopefully, this will happen one day. Until then, I seriously doubt you'll see either OPF or OpenReader format versions of any commercial publication.
