I'm actually not sure how it works with DRM-restricted books, because I don't buy them as a matter of principle.

Nearly all of my books come from free archives such as Project Gutenberg, but when I buy them, I go to Baen, BookView Cafe, etc., where I can buy good DRM-free books.
Calibre will transfer a book with DRM. It just can't make any changes.
