Mini V brakes

So, my bike has mini V brakes. Looking around on the net it seems that replacement brake arms aren't that easy to come by and I'm wondering if I should be worried or stocking up for the future?
From what I understand, the 'spring' (that long, thin piece of metal wire that pushes the arm back) doesn't last forever and I'll need to replace them every now and then. Should I go mad and buy up a few sets now or am I worrying over nothing?

Mini V brakes are specified as original equipment on some 2009 model cyclocross bikes, so shouldn't be a problem to get hold off.0

Jamey your bike will have been upgraded, replaced, stolen or crashed long before the brake arm springs wear out<a>road</a>0
