I don't know of a single "store app" (Kindle, Nook, Kobo) that allows sideloading books. Third-party apps like Aldiko can read Adobe DRM, though.
Kindle and Kobo and Overdrive Media Console allow sideloading of non-DRM content. Anything with Adobe DRM? Aldiko & txtr are it on Android AFAIK (Bluefire on the way, I hope) None of the others use Adobe RMSDK, which would be required to sideload Adobe DRM stuff (including PDF).

The corollary to this is that apps that don't use RMSDK are using their own DRM keys, bound to the app instance in question. The content that is downloaded is unreadable on anything but that instance of the app.
