(It might've been announced on two dozen sites; I don't shop at DRM-only bookstores so I can easily miss that kind of thing.)

A year ago, mobipocket.com sold ebooks.

*googles a bit*

Aha!

To better serve authors, publishers and customers, Amazon is consolidating eBook sales & publishing to the Kindle Platform. Mobipocket will not accept new eBook submissions for sale on Mobipocket.com or its affiliated retailers after Dec 2, 2011 and will stop all sales and remove your existing eBooks after Jan 2, 2012.
Amazon no longer allows other stores to sell secure mobi ebooks. Wow.
