Hope this helps.
Sorry, any DRM can be removed - usually with a simple script/program
When this can't be done the reader itself is hacked and the book is read from memory in its unencrypted state (usually not neccessary)
Or if all else fails, OCR can be done via screen capture (sloppy)

Oh and another thing, removing the DRM is likely illegal in many countries or violates some TOS. I may be wrong but if this is the case, regardless of your intent, it may be the same as just downloading the unprotected book from some random file sharing site (which is much easier to do and will take even less time to accomplish...) - from a legal standpoint anyways.
