However, speaking for CURRENT Amazon books, there is no 'phoning home' for DRM access, so as long as you don't lose your key or serial number, the books you downloaded up to now can be stripped of DRM at anytime, even if Amazon and it's servers vanish today.

If you have no actual kindle device and only rely on the Kindle for * apps, then there are certainly scenarios where "can be stripped of DRM anytime" is just not true. If Amazon and its servers vanish today (or you simply become locked out of your account), then those DRMed backups of K4PC files can be rendered useless if the original computer's hard drive (or the computer itself) takes a puke and you have to get a new one.
