That's part of it. Part of it is that Kindles break and need to be replaced. And there's no guarantee that the (far into the future - at least three years) replacement Kindle will be able to read such primitive formats.
In which case, having a DRM-removed copy around on your backup DVDs will make it possible to re-read without having to re-purchase them. Yay!
