The next book I bought did have DRM and it took me about an hour to get the plug-in to work. Mostly because I didn't realize once I had the plug-in setup I had to THEN import the book, it wouldn't strip DRM from books already loaded in my Calibre library.

As for how that is setup for DRM vs. non-DRM for books on BN.com I am not entirely sure, but there deffinitely are at least a few that are non-DRM.
Yup, you're right. There's an option. It's hard for me to keep it all straight when uploading. Or downloading for that matter...
