Yes...

Yes, DRM free books are always easier.

It depends. Do you want them to just be able to read the books you put on it for them? Or, do you want to give them some books and also allow them to buy and add their own books?
So, bottom line... with DRMed ebooks you can only read the ebooks that were bought with an account that the reader is registered to. So, if you give me a reader that is registered to your account with DRMed books on it... I would be able to read those books... but if I tried to put books on it that I bought with my account they wouldn't work.
(Yes DRM really sucks.)
