I particularly like the fact that (with the O'Reilly books at least) you get both the DRM-free ePub and PDF. Nice to have the PDF for technical books so you can display them on your computer. You can also read your books online at eBooks.com. Does anyone know eBooks.com's history?
You can read ePub files on PC as well, but I agree that PDF tends to work better. Here's a list of a few eBook readers for Windows, and some for Mac OSX/OS11 as well. Calibre's in both lists, but that's a seriously bare-bones eBook reader. I hate using it for anything beyond quick checks or short stories.
