Well, I can state that if this old broad can learn Markdown (two types, mind you) in minutes, so, too, can anyone. But for me, it's just faster to type the coding for HTML/XHTML than markdown. Admittedly, it's likely the EASIEST markup language/mechamism in existence, but that's because it's so bloody limited. For simple text, however--say, a fiction novel--what it does should suit most.
I have at least one friend that processes Markdown-->HTML-->ePUB. Hey, y'know, whatever floats your boat.
