DAW and DRM?

[jacey]

Does anyone know if DAW e-books (Penguin group) are DRM free or not. There are a couple of books I want but no Kindle editions are on offer on Amazon. DAW sell a digital e-pub version direct from their site which I can convert to mobi for my Kindle reader, but only if it is DRM free. I don't have a reader for e-pub files, so if I buy the books and then discover they are cursed with DRM, I've wasted my money.

*I* don't know how to do it, but it's allegedly extremely easy to break the DRM so you can use the file on other devices. (Which goes to the heart of why DRM is stupid in the first place: it doesn't slow down the pirates and just creates a hassle for legitimate users.) You might ask around if any tech-savvy friends can help you with this, if there aren't any DRM-free versions available.
