Of course actually reading is the main point of ebooks on an ereader.

I'm glad to hear that most worked well on the Kindle. The idea behind it also seems to be part of DjVu (1998), though those are fixed layout and can convert to image based PDF (1992 and open standard since 2008).

It seems a shame it's gone as the idea of scanning pages and having reflowable content on a smaller screen with no human proofing seems useful.
