Still it is a lesson learned situation. It's always better to have a backup of the original source material. That's why I always download to my computer then copy to my iDevices via calibre. That's also why I make multiple copies of my calibre directory, the one in use, a backup to my raid disk and a copy to drop box. It cost a bit to have a large drop box account, but I consider it worthwhile.

True, it's always best to have backups.
Personally, ever since I got a smartphone I'm never in front of my PC long enough to do manual backups/downloads. Hence why I made the effort to learn some PHP and write my own scripts for ff.net. Unfortunately, not everyone is technically inclined. Thankfully, Dropbox is an option now and I always save fics there first (both for backup purposes and to make fics available on all my iDevices).
