Do they wear out or just go bad over time? If so I better get a back up.

WIkipedia (external link) says, "Current cards using NAND flash are rated for 1,000,000 writes per block before hard failure." I think you have a while before they go bad. There is the rare occasion that a CF card will go bad long before that.
