if one of the parties ceases to exist and there's no clause in the contract that dictates who steps in to replace said party, then the contract ceases to exist. and thus does the license. no more contract, no more license to read the book, no more access to the book. how are (some of) you people not getting this!?!?
if someone is worried about what happens to a $3.99 ebook, then they clearly aren't leaving much else so they've led a pretty meaningless life. if someone is saying they've got tens of thousands of dollars tied up in this, then maybe they should have paid more attention to what they're buying or had a more suitable contract drafted.
