In a perfect world, I'd be able to store them in a completly open format [html?], covert and dump them onto whatever reader I am using at the time without having to worry too much with formating.

So, have any of you guys came up with any good ideas on developing an ebook library that works well with our existign readers, but will also allow relatively easy path of conversion, etc for use with future formats/readers?
If you are able to use Book Designer you can use it to convert your Books into LRF and other formats such as MobiPocket, MS Reader, Fictionbook eReader. You would archive off the HTML0 files from Book Designer. Or if you use HTML2LRF you'll have your source as HTML.
