As far as a subscription model goes… I don’t like them either… I much prefer buying my software and being done. However, subscription is the only way to keep the cash flow that pays for programmers to keep working on the app. I think Marvin’s one-fee model is one reason why it isn’t being maintained. It was Kris’ ‘project’, not his ‘business’.

I’m sure there is plenty more discussion of Bookfusion’s merits over at the links Faterson posted. Thanks!
Bookfusion should allow custom fonts. I don't want to read with the default fonts.

Another feature I'd like to have is ADE page numbers. I don't recall if that's available. And where is hyphenation?

Also, a subscription model is not something I will pay for. If I decide I like bookfusion enough to pay for it, I'll do so as a one off.
