In fact Apple took the standard epub format and added
their own proprietary
elements, thus creating a new proprietary "ibooks" format. The new format
will only be readable with the iBooks 2 software which is confined to iOS.
The format specs are not published either, so I won't hold my breath for
compatible readers from other companies.
What's more, the iBook Authoring software is only available for Max OS
X Lion. It does not run on any other platform.
I second your suggestion to make our content available in free ebook formats.
