It is also the reason decompression programs DO exist. The resulting file then being a standard epub.
There are a few reader apps out there that will load a transferred iBook file. But the issue in general remains on the most recent versions of Books.
The OP and other comments are correct.
Right now I use eCanCeusher. (Disclosure: not affiliated )
