Nothing is more off-putting that clicking onto a halting, annoying, non-standard, simi-working ebook format.

While looking through a sample, it locked my browser. This does not suggest that purchasing this service will lead to my prolonged happiness.

If you are going to be an ebook dealer, I would suggest using an established format where the technical challenges have already been worked out. There are numerous ebook formats which are compatible with proper readers. There is also the industry standard PDF format, ideal for books that require accurate formatting and graphics handling.
