Cory Doctorow specified in several of his recent talks that he lists his books on Kobo (and various other places) because they do NOT attach DRM.
Everything I've downloaded from Kobo has been one of those acsm files and goes directly to my Sony Reader Library (including the indie books I've bought). If I try to put a copy in Calibre it gets rejected so I assume it has DRM.

I'll have to try the app and see if I can tell if the books are DRM free or not.
