Using the lrf2lrs tool you can extract most of them (some don't work) and take a look at their construction. It may help with understanding some of the lrf format.
I think the ones that don't work have tags that the librie doesn't use.
Based on the headers it looks like Sony is creating their content using BookCreator.

I'm not sure if you noticed but earlier versions of this tool were posted on the Yahoo group by myself. I've also done work on the LRF reverse engineering wiki.
I have my own Java LRF dumper as well.
I've spent much time pulling apart LRF files.
My focus with this tool is in producing
re-flowable LRF files. Book Creator, Book Designer focus on page layout oriented books that are more awkward to magnify.
Unfortunately the Sony Reader I ordered opening day, and was only recently delivered, died after 2 hours of operation. It has yet to be replaced. I live in a "dead zone" of local availability, as I live far too close to geekraver to be able to get a local replacement.
