All depends on ones ideas of "have", and "loss." I don't have digital collections of books, music, pictures, or videos to back up. So what's left? Everything I value can be quickly (and cheaply) reinstalled/recreated. The things I care most about can't really be digitally "lost." Passwords and instructions are the main exception to that; and a couple of thumbdrives and/or an occasional printout takes care of those.

I didn't take extensive measures to safeguard against the loss of my physical collections of pictures, music or videos before digital replaced them; so I see little point in going out of my way to do it for digital versions of them.
