That's the reason I use Sigil ePub is my preferred format for reading, editing, exchanging,archiving etc. With the DeDrm plugin it removes all sort of DRM and my E-book library has atm around 3000 books - all ePubs.

Well - usually I read my books with the calibre book viewer on my computer, it's the easiest method reading for me as I'm left-side paralyzed and have a lot of problems reading on my Kindle 3 or iPhone or Kindle tablet with just one usable arm. As I wrote before my preferred exchange format is also ePub because it's highly standardized and not in the claws of a company with only their own interests in mind.

BTW: with my setup soft-hyphens work quite well in English as well as in German or Danish E-books (I read and understand those languages)
