If the DRM'ed file allows the exact same rights as the non-DRM'ed
file, fine. If the DRM is applied simply to allow the rights to
be exercised on a platform, and you can copy, derive, and distribute
that DRM'ed file, then that form of DRM isn't a problem.
I think the wording of the license only disallowes DRM that actually
restricts the rights to work, and then only applies to a distributed
work.
If the DRM adds restrictions, though, then its a different story.
