That's what I usually do, and everything gets backed up. My issue is that I won't touch ADE books in the first place which means I use Amazon not the SF Gateway direct to make my purchases. The hoops I have to jump through to get the actual digital file aren't worth it, and I read across multiple devices not just one (although side-lined content on the iPad is a bit fiddly).
