ePUB. It just a variant of XHTML with metadata and a wrapper. It's also an open standard, so converters should be available no matter what.

I don't see LRF surviving long.

I have a large collection and I don't want that to be useless if I switch to a device that does not support .lrf (my current format of choice). I know .lrf is not a good format to convert from. I'll keep converting to .lrf but I want an additional non-proprietary format.

I'm thinking either HTML or EPub. I'm unfamiliar with EPub however.
