The short version is that if it has been been published in the last 70ish years it likely has DRM. This is an oversimplification but generally true, especially if it is a new/popular book. Not sure how Amazon identifies them on their website (or if they do) as each company is a little different in that regard. As long as you are paying for the book Apprentice Alf/Calibre are your friends in getting it to work on your device. It's surprisingly easy although it may break the letter of the law depending where you live.
