I meant the "standard" for what format eBooks in general are sold in.

PDF, Mobipocket, LRF, ePub, Kindle... etc.

Buy a reader that supports Mobipocket, for example, and guess what... a couple years down the road Mobipocket is killed off and replaced with something else (ePub). There's no guarantee that your reader will be updated with new formats. Who knows, maybe a couple years down the road ePub will die and we'll end up with yet another format being popular.
