Mobi have been around "forever" in eBook terms. They are far MORE likely to be around in 10 years time than any other vendor. They've been selling eBooks for the last 10 years; no reason to suppose they won't still be selling them in another 10.
Personally speaking, even if I could "only" use a dictionary for 10 years I'd consider that I'd got value for money from it. The language does change over time; buying a new dictionary every 10 years is not unreasonable.
