For best future-proofing on DRM books, I say go with the Sony if you're not planning to immediately strip. Amazon has this inconvenient habit of breaking the necessary tools every so often with software and firmware upgrades and minor file format changes.
Adobe, on the other hand, is less likely to do this, or at least less able to do it as rapidly since I think they'd have to update the ADE SDK for developers in some way and wait for companies to push the new version.
Mind you, it does look like Amazon UK has some of the cheapest pricing for their special sale books, although the ability to use discount coupons on non-Agency books at Kobo might balance that out.
And if you happen to like certain types of genre fiction (mostly romance and sf/fantasy), then the DRM-free availability of ePubs of older, good-quality backlist books as well as occasional new releases from particular no-DRM supporting publishers is quite decent.
