No -- MobiPocket Reader doesn't "see" the .azw files/books. It only knows .prc or .mobi
First of all, the books you purchase from Amazon are backed up for you at Amazon and you can download them again and again. But, if you're a bit methodical, you can also transfer them from the Kindle to your PC or to auxiliary storage attached to your PC.
I have the following:
1 - A 2G "thumb" drive with all of the books I have downloaded except for the Harvard Classics and those purchased at Amazon.
2 - A 120G USB "pocket" drive with all my books on it. I have also transferred all my books purchased from Amazon from the Kindle to this hard drive.
3 - A 400G USB drive which backs up the pocket drive.
#1 and #2 live in my backpack along with my laptop and go everywhere I go. My laptop has two USB ports, so I can mount any two devices (usually the Kindle and the pocket drive) and transfer files from one to the other.
Except on the Kindle, I keep the book files in folders with the name of the source. Therefore I have folders named MobileRead, Feedbooks, Manybooks, Fictionwise, Baen, TOR, Amazon, etc. I usually download to my laptop hard drive and then transfer the files to the thumb drive and pocket drive periodically.
