Huh? has then been a crack for ADE DRM? As while non Drm'd EPUB may be easy to convert, its kind of useless unless you can get around the security of the protected ones to do so.

As for Amazon, they currently support two forms of DRM, with .azw being just a renamed Mobi file, whose DRM can be stripped the same way as for Mobi files, and the other Topaz (azw1, Tpz) whose DRM has not yet been cracked.
