I banned use of iframe in company I worked in over 20 years ago. The idiot was using it to reuse content from someone else's site in our web site.
They are also used to serve adverts which later can server malware.

Which is what I suggested. That way it works forever. Though it's still not a real ebook.
It's storing, not hosting. It's an epub3, not a web site.
Any static distribution / app that needs a remote resource is better done as an app or best is as a web site. What happens if YouTube (or other provider) takes down the video? What happens if the user loses the internet connection?
