This is a very problematic subject, for starters there is maybe around 30 different types of files that can be read by multiple different devices. Presumably there maybe books filetypes published that can only be read by a limited number of these devices? Which means there is a probable combination problem for a database. (Files x Devices = lots)

BUT
there is another case for not using EBOOKS as a format. If you have a real book you can buy and sell them. With Ebooks you can't, unless for example, you sold your kindle with everything on it? I suspect that is why for a similar reason MP3s and other download files are not a type in the various music worlds.
