You could use my Kindlegen plugin to generate azw3 or hybrid mobi files or DiapDealer's KindleImport plugin to convert Kindle books to ePubs.

For your daily releases you could also use a batch file to generate .azw3 and .lrf files.

Code:
DEL conversion.log
FOR %%f IN ("*.epub") DO  (
    "C:\Program Files\Calibre2\ebook-convert.exe" "%%f" "%%~nf.azw3" >> conversion.log
    "C:\Program Files\Calibre2\ebook-convert.exe" "%%f" "%%~nf.lrf" >> conversion.log
)
Simply create a text file with a .bat extension, paste the above code into it and save it.
Then copy the .bat file to the folder that contains the epub file(s) and double-click the batch file.
(Obviously, this will only work if C:\Program Files\Calibre2\ebook-convert.exe exists; if you've installed Calibre in a different location, you'll need to adjust the file path.)
