I agree, it's a matter of personal taste, it's just that I like my books to look like books. I can't remember the last ragged-right paperback I read. Unless you use a big font, I don't find the spacing and hyphenation to be a problem.

I just can't believe ePub is supposed to be the universal e-book format and it didn't even support full justification until a few months ago.
