You might want to add another reason why backups are useful locally.

ebooks previously purchased can at the publishers whim, become geographically restricted preventing you from accessing that ebook (or ebooks) from your bookshelf.

This situation happened to myself and apparently many others recently. MY backup HDD failed and I lost a good number of paid-for ebooks that I now cannot re-download.

Removing DRM is simply part of the process now.
