I just bought it. Format?
I was wondering if there is a difference between .lrf and .epub and which format is better for my PRS-505. I just got it a week ago, so I'm not very familiar with anything.
Thank You! |

They are completely different formats, but the Sony supports them both. Neither is particularly "better" in terms of the reading experience.

I think you'll be happy with either Sony LRF/LRX or with epub.
As I have both types on my reader, I slightly prefer epub over Sony's native LRF/LRX format but its a close call. LRX is only available from Sony's store but epub is available from ebook stores around the world. |

From my experience the zoom and page turns too are faster when using ePub on the sony.
