All of my purchased ebooks have the DRM removed first thing on downloading. I keep all of my ebooks, both public domain freebies and purchases, on my PC in a Calibre Library and that is backed up nightly to 3 other hard drives, and occasionally to the cloud. I never make purchases directly to my reader for a few reasons... I will never have a need where I just have to buy a book right this second while I'm out, and I don't want any account information on my readers in case I lose one.
I keep around 300 books on my reader at any one time, so I have plenty of reading choices until I get back home. I don't trust online booksellers to always be around to guarantee I can download my content again, or that they won't ever suffer any glitches where my books vanish from my account.
Btw, did anyone else have to Google "DAE"? I assumed it was some organization...
