However, the end result is usually worth it to me. I can't stand reading ePubs or LRFs on my Sony...Just swap the fonts with Comic Sans (I know some on these fora have already done that). Perhaps I'm a heartless child-hater, but I don't really want to spend $10 on a book that looks like it was typeset by a kindergarten student in FrontPage Express.
Perhaps in the future they won't look like such a joke, and I'll be able to download tolerable ePubs from conventional stores without all the extra hassle of making the books readable.

To each his own I guess, but pdfs are a pita as far as I'm concerned. I don't read a book to admire it's appearance, but for the story.
I've yet to see one(epub) that was unreadable, but have seen pdfs that were. YMMV.
