The problem is, ebooks can disappear. That almost happened to ones that I had purchased from a small vendor. They gave no warning. I happened to catch it just in the nick of time.

That's why I nag everybody to back up their books as soon as they buy them. I have a bit of a problem with that myself. On the 3rd Friday night of the month, I have a reminder to check that I've downloaded and freed all the ebooks and audiobooks I bought in the last month. Then I add them to the backup. Then I add them to the flashdrive that goes to my off-site backup (has been my sister's but I'm getting a bank safe-deposit box to store that in now- not just books, also family photo scans, favorite movies and important papers). Storage is so small and a WD portable HD fits just so in the box.
