You are not tied up to Amazon at all. I have lot of free DRM books on my Kindle from other stores, legally bought. It just requires a book in MOBI format instead of AZW.

On a Kindke you can even read free DRM ePub books via Calibre conversion. I've done that as well without any issues, takes 60 seconds via Calibre.
