It would appear that we have different requirements; with almost 400 books on my reader I am in no danger of running out of things to read. I just don't need the facility to add books on the fly. You obviously want that and, as it is available with some Sony competitors, it's not an unreasonable requirement.
I hope you find a reader that better suits your needs.

To be fair to Sony, I am in the UK so couldn't use the Sony Store even if I wanted to!
