If the store no longer offered the books for download, then how would you authorise your new devices, and de authorise your old ones.
I agree. I am very surprised that the contracts allow for the book not to be available in the future. So even if you trust that the company will survive for 5 years it impossible to buy an ebook now and be sure that you can read it in 5 years time on your then current device.
