The ebooks available from mobileread should not be encrypted.
With MOBI it isn't technically possible to apply full DRM control without a Mobipocket-licenced server. However, there are lower levels of encryption that can be applied by Mobipocket Creator (and mobigen). This might have been done by mistake. Another possibility is that these are in an older version of the MOBI format or are mall-formed. Please point out a particular ebook for further analysis.
