And the corollary:
From http://nzetc.victoria.ac.nz/ I distribute >1000 ePUB files. If
they all had ISBNs and I had to update a CSS file in each to make them
more usable on the latest eReader, would I need to consume >1000 ISBNs
to do that? At the current rate of release of eReaders, how long until
this single site consumes all available ISBNs?
