You can get it about everywhere (even in most Linux repositories), modify it, and share it; officially, it's not allowed, but basically it comes down to it that nobody seems to care (as long as you don't try to earn money with it).

That is a dangerous grey line. Would it be ok to download a free drm-ed book from Amazon, remove the drm, then distribute it? I think not. And reasoning that said book could have been gotten from Project Gutenberg for free, doesn't mean you can do what you want with the Amazon version. Even redistributing PG books is not easy with their licence. The only way to distribute them is by removing everything mentioning PG, then you are ok, otherwise no.
