Your entire argument is dependent on people sticking with a few screen sizes, Ahi. I simply don't see any chance of that in the future, and any change in screen size when you move devices screws you over, you lose your formatting.

Personally, I'd pay arround 20% of a paper book's price for a fixed-format book. For a format designed for reflow? More. Quite a bit more, because the effort will have gone into a format I can keep and use on multiple devices. Quit trying to control what I read on. "Common sizes" indeed - that's just another way of saying "Whatever a few powerful manufacturers like, screw the rest of you".

(And on tiny mobile screens, er yea...does anyone bother trying?)
