There was an earlier dispute about stuff like this between RandomHouse and ebook publisher Rosetta. RandomHouse sued to block Rosetta from releasing 8 titles.
RH had the rights to the paper editions, and claimed they had the ebook rights as well. The contracts on which the rights were based had been signed back before ebooks were even a gleam in anyone's eyes, and a judge decided they did not cover electronic editions.
If RH is disputing this, I don't see them getting far.
