Not favorite authors (Steinbeck and King will never be Amazon exclusive), but I have bought books from a bunch of Amazon exclusive authors. But when the book isn't Amazon exclusive...

Something I was thinking about is with this change, if there is a catastrophic failure where the hard drive and back-up both fail, I won't be able to get copies from Kindle any longer.

And if Kobo made their ereader prices competitive and more widely available, it would've made switching back a non-issue for me. Clara HD and PWSE are the same price here, which is just ridiculous. I just can't justify that purchase.
In the US, Kobo and Kindle hardware are very competitively priced.
