You're not alone, I also primarily use .mobi. I also convert everything in my library to .epub as well (just in case I need it later on), since Calibre makes doing so easy. I just don't get complaints about formats since with Calibre it doesn't really matter, you just convert it to whatever you want/need.

I'm also a primary user of MOBI and its variants. Although I'd prefer AZW3, so maybe I'm not nobody

And there is no DRM so if you have esoteric tastes in e-book formats you can just convert. The cheapest 9-volume set is in fact $39.99 less discount not reformatted to be better on a specific ereader. http://ebooksdirect.dianeduane.com/p...n-complete-set |
