When you buy a digital book online, you are buying access to it on a server somewhere. As long as you are logged in and online, it remains accessible to specific devices and readers.
Downloading gives you access offline, and also a sort of backup, to the extent that you have storage space available.
I download all my Amazon books into my Kindle Paperwhite as a matter of course.

Where I do have my books on a PC, no matter in which format, I search for the format and transfer the books to a DVD, flash drive, or cloud storage elsewhere, like Drive or Dropbox.
The main digital formats are .azw .pdf. and .epub. To collect books I search in the uppermost directory where I have them with the following: *.azw *pdf. and *. Epub. I then highlight the listing by tapping on the top item on the list and pushing the End Key, after which I drag and drop en masse to the destination.
