Hey all, this might sound morbid and nihalistic but by curiosity feels unsated, say i bought all the stuff, and the website will have planned in the future to shut down, will it mean ill lose all the material i bought?
Will i get to at least download what i bought to pdfs?
As of currently im genuinely considering to buy hard copies of all my material... am i being to paranoid?
If such a thing were to happen, you'd probably have some advance notice in which case you could simply copy/paste the compendium into a local document so long as you intend to use it personally.
There are certainly no plans to be shut down. D&D Beyond always has aimed to be the ultimate D&D toolset and that includes being in it for the long run.
Now, it's impossible to know exactly what the future may hold, and there is always a chance of the unlikely happening, but should D&D Beyond's services come to an end for whatever reason, DDB will do whatever it can to do right by it's users.

You would buy hard copies because they are pretty and lovely to hold.
As for 5e content access, you will never need to worry about it, there are free sites that provide all of 5e content in a format that far easier to search and use than dndbeyond. Wizards doesn't care to stop that company so I think you are good.
