Recognize that ADE is not synonymous with ePub. ADE also includes formats such as pdf and html.

I'm curious about this attitude wrt pdf files. I have read lots of pdf-format ADE books borrowed from the local library. They reflow and resize text quite nicely, and read just like an ebook should on my Reader. And fyi, there are lots of ebooks in pdf format out there, whether or not you "consider" them to be such. Stating that ADE is synonymous with ePub is simply false.
