Ebooks do go out of print. Look at Baen books, an ebook pioneer. They usually do a contract for 10 years. Once the contract is over. They can't sell that ebook any more.
Example, the works of Cordwainer Smith. Baen had his entire output in 2 volume for 10 years. Now you can't buy those editions, they are out of print. (actually out of contract - same difference to someone wanting to get a copy to read.)
