Not at all. You're dependent on Amazon and Adobe keeping their servers running and your account open every time you buy a new device. I just load my books to my new device from Calibre and I don't even need an internet connection for this, let alone someone else's server.

Nothing prevents you from doing this - files with DRM can also be backed up.

No they cannot. If Adobe and Amazon go out of business or close my account, then I'd be unable to read my books on anything else than my current device.

You just have to have bought several licenses to use them on your devices.
Did you?
If not, then maybe you can reflect my thoughts on your attitudes based on my contributions here.

Of course not. It's your unique interpretation that a person must buy more than one license per book for their personal use or else they're a thief. No one else has interpreted the law this way. And nowhere in the law it's said that removing the DRM = theft. It's your imagination only. And I don't care what you imagine to be true.
