Adopting an open standard, such as OEBPS is a great step forward, persummably the same file can now be displayed through different softweare readers - it'll be much more palitable for publishers to use one format and support multiple DRM schemes for different readers ... now if we could have an open standard around DRM that could cover most eventualities and be acceptable for publishers ...the ebook/emagazine format might take off!
This is potentially a good step forward ...
