However, I don't think it affects how it renders in a standard epub reader. I think it only really matters if you're persnickety about the epub's innards
That's good to know, thanks. I have occasionally bought Google epubs as I end up with Google credit a lot. I'm not too picky as long as they convert OK and I can fix missing punctuation and such.

I look because I refuse to support DRM'd, full price content. I'm reluctantly willing to spend a certain amount, something like a rental price - so I buy a DRM'd book occasionally. I am willing, however, to buy a non-DRM'd full price ebook.

Even though cracking the DRM has become super easy compared to the earlier methods (manual python script).
