I don't like omnibus volumes - if I want to read a specific book, it's hard to find it.
Yeah, I don't like omnibuses for e-books - the books are treated like chapters; the "furthest read" functionality doesn't work unless you read the books in order; and searches search the entire omnibus (which might be helpful for academic purposes, but which is less helpful for things like "who is this guy again?")
