Sooooo, the real question is: Why NOT ePub3?


That was a rhetorical question...please don't answer it yet again...we all know your preferences on the matter.
I'm not saying that if you know how to make an ePub 3 (backwards compatible) don't do it. I'm saying that if you already have an ePub 2 that's finished, it's not worth it to convert to ePub 3.
