You had never read of anyone losing access to their books purchased from the Microsoft E-book Store, until it happened. The point being: just because it hasn’t happened yet doesn’t mean it won’t happen in the future.
Check out the TOS:
https://authorize.kobo.com/terms/termsofuse
Viewing ebooks you purchased from Kobo is part of their service. You agree to the terms of this page when you use the service. They can modify the terms at any time, without notice. If you don’t abide by the terms, they can delete your account and all your books with it.
Even worse, they reserve the right to use the device you purchased to display ads based on the data they collected from you about what you read. And if you don’t like it, your only remedy is to delete your account and give back any of the books you “purchased” (which you didn’t actually purchase because you don’t have a right to it unless Kobo thinks you do).
