Hello James and listers,

    Well it's all a matter of choice. Not everyone cares to use the Adobe 
Reader for accessing E-books. This software too has accessibility issues 
though less so than it once did. Have you heard of XML? Marking up content 
using Extensible Markup Language, (XML) makes it possible to display 
documents and E-books in  multiple file formats Allowing a book publisher to 
offer them in many different versions. It's all about personal choice. The 
sighted don't like being limiyted to using specific software to read E-Books 
nor should the blind.
