For myself, I like to keep things simple, so if I'm going to upload books purchased elsewhere to the Azon cloud (for storage/syncing purposes), I'm going to stick with simple .MOBI. It sounds like converting to any other format nets you a lot of headaches with this or that feature not working.

Caveat with MOBI, no custom fonts, font weight or enhanced typsetting. Which is fine if the available defaults are acceptable to you. Others prefer greater customization.
It really is just weighing which features are important to you. I use plain MOBI myself. I value covers and syncing more than custom fonts or enhanced typesetting.
