Hi JAX! Welcome to the MobileRead forums. One great source for e-books is your local library. You can often get so many new titles as soon they come out in paper. No cost at all for those! Look through the MobileRead download library for thousands of free books already formatted for your Sony. There really are hundreds of thousands of free books available through Project Gutenberg, Project Gutenberg-Canada, Project Gutenberg-Australia, and many, many other free e-book sites. Do a web search for 'free e-books' and you'll turn up dozens of locations for them.
I'm afraid that perhaps the folks who you were listening to may have been talking about pirated e-books. These can be downloaded from many, many sites all over the Internet. All the newest releases can be found as well as older series and collections. However, you must realize that the authors receive no money at all when people download these books.
I hope you enjoy your Sony as much as I enjoy mine. It really has made a difference!
