Yes, with the seller agreement. Neither can unilaterally do it on Amazon.

Smashwords lets a user download a new version and all the old versions up to the version they originally published, not no older.

I've no idea what Google Playbooks via playstore does.

Kobo, Apple, Barnes&Noble and Scribd can be distributed direct from the publisher, or Smashwords can distribute to them and Overdrive. I've also no idea if a reader can get an updated version from Kobo, Apple, Barnes&Noble Scribd or Overdrive when Smashwords is effectively the wholesale.

Best to buy titles direct from Smashwords, if available, then you can download all later versions always.
