I'm not concerned about current file formats. When you had physical media, like cassette tapes and floppies, you had to have the correct hardware to access the media. With digital files, it's no longer a problem. Any computer or tablet that exists today can run software that can read all formats that are popular today.
I am fairly certain that in 30 years I would still be able to find a Kindle reader app archived somewhere on the internet that I'd be able to run on whatever platform I am using. Same for ePubs. Same for MP3s, AVIs, and whatever ancient digital media from 2013 that I am still holding on to at that time.
