Lord knows it could happen. Or they have no record of the update. It can really depend on WHERE the book was updated FROM. I don't know if they track or care about smashword updates, for example. It can be very hard to tell if they do those updates. I used to upload my books to kobo from there. (I still do for a couple of the short story anthos). For the ones where I use their uploader, I know they can tell and do track it. But from other sources, they may not keep records.

In some cases, it might be easier to just ask the author if it's an indie book. But even for some small publishers I don't know if Kobo would be able to tell (or would care to track such).

That leaves me with wondering whether to even tell readers via my blog. Most probably won't care and it could turn into a hassle for them to get a new copy.
