It is your responsibility to download your ebooks and make back ups of them.

The same thing with Amazon, it is your job to download the ebook because they can pull them at anytime, as they did with 1984 last year (or the year before?)

Moral of story- download immediately and back up your ebooks!! Just in case!

Amazon pulled it because they said they didn't have the right to distribute the book. There is an assumption with Amazon that the books are held for you.
