Also keep in mind that converting Word/InDesign/PDF to ePUB takes a specialist to do it right. All of the automated tools will deliver questionable results with unpredictable output on the various readers.

Security will be an issue, but nothing that can be solved. Having a good SSL certificate will help, but good quality code is also very important.
I know there are lot of apps in the market, however this will be my app. As I will control what kind of books will be available in the app.

DRM is something I don't like, however that is something publisher might request, how can I convince them to use my services without using DRM.
