I don't read for myself only, but I need to display to others, and when I add something on any random device, all other devices must be able to display it instantly. Given my situation, it is categorically out of the question to convert a part of my ebooks for one single device. Either the device can read it all or I simply won't buy it.
I can't imagine a situation where I'm reading a book on my Kobo, I put the Kobo aside and must be able to pick up my phone and have the book instantly and seamlessly synced. Then my battery dies and I have to whip open my laptop and find the exact paragraph, stat! Come on people! Millions of lives are at stake!

How tense a situation can you be in for that to be so? Your life is way more interesting than mine I guess.
