You can read the Douay-Rheims online here:

drbo.org/

The translation at usccb.org is the NAB.

My copies of the Douay-Rheims are all from Baronius Press. I have some photos and a few words about them here:

I have several Catholic translations, but the DR is definitely my favorite. I’m quite certain that the reason I like the King James Version so much today is that I heard the DR read from the pulpit as a child.

Happy reading!

Yep, I got my hard copies of the Douay Rheims from Baronius as well. They also have a side by side with the Clementine Vulgate which is nice. Not to mention a quality printing of the Knox Bible which is also Vulgate based.

FYI, you can read the DRB and the Vulgate at the link in my signature. I think it is the best and simplest presentation on the web in that regard.
