Ok, here's the word from Barnes and Noble which should alleviate re-download concerns for those books being taken ‘Off-Sale’ for Amazon's Select Program (and I would like to reiterate that these titles are fully expected to put in wider distribution once the initial select period if finished).
"Hello,
If a customer purchased an eBook (while it was On Sale in the past),
they will not be prevented from re-downloading that purchase in the
future, even if the eBook is subsequently taken Off Sale by the
author/publisher.
Sincerely,
The PubIt! Team"
I'm pretty sure Amazon has a similar policy as well.
Not sure about other venues, but it really is a policy decision made by them. As the publisher of these books we would definately encourage all stores to allow continued downloads of the files once bought.
