In recent years, nearly all of my reading is done while nursing a baby in the wee hours, so the iPhone's backlighting and one-handed operation have been essential.
Neither Fictionwise nor eReader.com has added back the publishers lost during the Agency Model shift, and based on several things I'm reading on MR and elsewhere, it is unlikely they ever will - B&N has shifted resources to their main operations, as I expected when they bought FW for the eReader format.
Selection at FW/eReader has been in a noticeable spiral since last year.
I used to read ADE and Mobi library eBooks borrowed via Overdrive, but the iPhone does not support these formats and I don't have hours to spend at my desktop or laptop anymore. I miss that convenience and cost-saving, but my sleep-deprived brain just can't figure out the deDRM process, and Palm/Mac sync was an ongoing nightmare that I don't miss at all!
I don't have the time or energy to deDRM right now, but I don't want to purchase a format that is impossible to deDRM if I really need to later.
So what format books do I invest in to get me some level of future proofing? It needs to be iPhone WiFI friendly, but still be downloaded as as separate file if I need it later.
eReader from B&N? Kindle for iPhone? Something else?
I've spent days reading posts on MR and haven't come to any conclusion. I'm tired and just want to read. Reading ebooks is the only thing keeping me sane during these crazy days/years.
