epub won't vanish soon.
But the problem is there is no single commercial epub. And not all epubs admit to being epub. (Kf8, ibook...) Both Amazon and Apple are updating their proprietary formats and implementing select epub features *their* way for very good business reasons. Others will likely follow their example, even if they choose to call their product epub.
epub may end up like openebook, a backend format used as feedstock for the consumer formats but not something consumers see or care about. (Few really knew or cared that MS Lit files with basically tweaked oeb.)
