If you have the private key of your address. Nobody can take it away from you, Even if all exchanges and Online wallet providers gone.
So keep your private key on safe place with safe mode. That's all you should remember.

Where do I find my private key on a blockchain.info wallet?

If you want the encrypted file, click the "download" button on the bottom right corner on your wallet home page.
If you want the unencrypted private keys, click "import/export", "export unencrypted" to get them.

Copy the private key and keep it safe somewhere.

I use online wallet too as the default wallet takes a long time to complete downloading and is so slow to start up.
Only bitcoin-qt  takes that much of time why don't you give a try to multibit or others that don't need to sync.

Your balance will be absolutely safe even if blockchain shutdowns.Save your backups on multiple places. Smiley

You must back up your wallet. You can import it on multibit wallet if blockchain ceases to exist or have some service interruption.

I feel pretty stupid asking this but I don't know any BTC'ers in real life so here goes.....

I have all of my BTC in a blockchain.info wallet (2FA enabled + 2 passwords)

I regularly back up my wallet when I buy more BTC by requesting email backups.

Any way the question is if blockchain.info ceases to exist in the future, goes bust etc is my wallet balance safe because I made email back ups?

Could I transfer the balance from my most recent email back up to another wallet provider?

Thanks in advance?
