There's less to this news than meets the eye.
To Alf acolytes, $13 DRM-free is no improvement over $13 DRM-encumbered.
Especially with BAEN still running at $6. And DRM-free.

Well, I'm not doing $13 for an ebook anyway (I'll just buy the hardcover). But I'll actually buy DRM-free ebooks, whereas I do my best not to buy DRM'd ebooks from B&N/Amazon/etc.
I'll put Tor on my "OK" list. Maybe they'll start selling on Smashwords, I like buying from them.
