I just don't understand why people have a problem with the calibre file structure as a database that happens to be readable without the database program.
Treating the calibre library folder set as a database and calibre as a library management tool that is used to maintain tags, authors and series and whatever other info you need allows you to then save your ebooks to disk using whatever naming convention you desire, in whatever folder structure you want.
So you end up with two copies of the book. Great! that's one backup taken care of.
