It's not a free replacement. It's like a bookstore only allowing you to have a limited number of books at home and the rest have to stay at the bookstore on a shelf that's just for you. That's DRM. If the books didn't have DRM then I'd agree that you backing them up is sufficient. You're required to keep your DRMed books in Amazon's or B&N's cloud. It didn't used to be that way with B&N.
