See this post in the thread in the news forum.

In answer to your query though, I use dropbox for my Calibre library, but also back it up on my PC & a flash drive. I have no fear of Amazon ever removing books from my Kindle (as it's happened only once with a single book despite all the scare stories), but I'm not about to rely on anyone other than myself to make sure I don't lose my books!
Yes I just now saw that in the other thread. Kinda changes things.

And I do the same as you. Library in Dropbox and backed up to flash and HD.

Highlighted to emphasize the importance of that.
