Sorry if this has been talked about already - I did look, but there are so many iOS and iCloud threads that I couldn't find what I was looking for.

I noticed Apple mention:

iCloud backs up your:
Purchased music, apps, and books
Photos and video in the Camera Roll
Device settings
App data
Home screen and app organization
Text and MMS messages
Ringtones

However, what about videos from iTunes? I.e if I get rid of iTunes on my PC when iOS 5 and iCloud are fully operational - if I need to restore my iPhone from iCloud - do I have to re buy my videos?
 
Looks like iCloud don't backup your purchased videos, you need to backup your videos on your computer for yourself and then sync them with your iphone, if you loose the videos from your computer there is always the possibility to redownload them from itunes for free if you write the apple support http://bit.ly/bRXAlc
