Is there a way to take a book that I purchased from the Sony Bookstore and import it to Calibre, so that I can edit the metadata and have it in the correct order in my collections?

If I try and import it into Calibre from my computer, Calibre can't read any of the metadata information. And if I try and send it to my reader anyway, it says it can't read the source format... but it also won't convert the file to any other format.

I guess I'm assuming that the file has some sort of DRM? If so, is there a way to edit it in the Sony Library Software so that it shows up in the right collection in the right order?

Thanks!
