> Kobo's store does have DRM, but it's easily bypassed by Calibre
I'd say this is the case for Amazon as well, if you have an actual Kindle. I was able to convert my whole library to standard epubs last weekend using Calibre.

Eventually, we'll just end up in the same situation as we are now with video DRM; DRM being hard enough to bypass that the methods of doing so will be closely guarded scene secrets, but the output of those methods will hit Z-lib / LibGen / AnnasArchive / all the usual places.
The thing with books is that they're small by todays bandwidth and disk capacity standards, so it's really hard to stop their proliferation.
