If you do not own a Kindle or Fire device then obtaining a DRM-free copy can be difficult. Non-Kindle owners do not have the download option on Amazon's website. And for most books, DRM protected KFX format is used by Amazon for over the air delivery to apps and devices. That applies even to books published by Tor and Baen.

I'm surprised the publishers that sell DRM free are not all over Amazon for their KFX lies.
