OCR'd ebooks are universally trash. For one, all formatting is gone. Anything in the book other than ASCII characters will vanish. You lose links within the book and all other advanced features.

And OCR is generally just not accurate enough and still makes very visible mistakes throughout the text.

Have you read many OCR'd ebooks? I have, and every single one was massively inferior. Most I would consider barely readable.
