YES! This is exactly why I chose the Sony over the Kindle. I don't know how to convert, shift, de-drm, etc and I do not want to learn. I want to buy a book, load it on, and be ready to read. I don't want to do all that extra stuff in between..

A few times I have been looking for books, and Sony has come out to be the cheapest. I like that they have MOST new hardcovers for $11.99. Do I care that it's $2 more than a Kindle book would be?? Uh, no. Just MY opinion. I've also had good luck with BooksOnBoard, especially now that they offer epub, and have gotten a couple from fictionwise. I, too, like having these OPTIONS.
