Regarding Kindle, Epubor has not yet managed to address the recent DRM changes.
While they do handle DRM removal for several regional eBook stores, some of which appears to be their own work (though I recently learned their honto solution is based on a project that received a DMCA takedown on GitHub).
Although BookFab has received quite a negative reception here, they initially employed a "hack" to download files with the old KFX DRM using a newer version of K4PC.
However, they now locally remove the DRM from the latest KFX files generated by the most recent version of K4PC. It is unclear if they are referencing Satsuoni's research, but it seems they have successfully overcome the challenge head-on.
Epubor's servers are still offline. If they have indeed abandoned their business, it would be a great shame, as their application was useful for eBook stores other than Kindle.
This might, however, present a new business opportunity for BookFab.
