SW is about the only way to distribute to the other stores without going insane. Yeah, you can do Apple, but it's a major pain. The others, forget it. But really--if you already have a good Word doc, there's no reason not to do SW. It's an easy process, and why not take advantage of the distribution to all those other stores?

You can upload DRM free to Amazon, Apple and B&N. I haven't uploaded to Kobo yet so I can't fill you in on that. Sony DRM everything.
Anyway, it hasn't been as big a problem to do it yourself as I thought it might be. Most of the uploads are no more trouble than filling out endless online forms. Once an account is opened each book takes about 5 minutes. If you copy and paste meta data you can do an apple book in about 2.
You need a US tax number and bank account though.
