And I have a bunch of Kindles and the Kindle App so accessing my books is easy enough.

I am not worried about Amazon collapsing so I have not been saving for that reason.
I would do something similar if I owned multiple Kindles. I wouldn't remove DRM, back-up or even use Calibre. Buy and read.

However, I'm 100% dependent on K4PC and, therefore, my future proofing is more labor intensive.
