It may be the only one you know of, but it's certainly not the only one . BooksOnBoard, for example, also sell OD Mobi books.

But think it over, 4 companies hold the keys to most of the world's legal ebooks.
And how would lack of DRM servers help with that? If a company's servers went down, you still wouldn't be able to buy eBooks from them, DRM or no DRM.
