EPUB2 will be supported for a LONG time to come, just like (for example) jpg, mp3, and FLAC. Some formats have just become the 'de facto standard' and it's impossible to NOT support them in your application. I think EPUB2 is one of them, and that's the reason why my entire library is EPUB2.
The precursor to ePub 2 is the now defunct MS LIT format.
