The ID has been part of the file name for over a year.

I've used Calibre from a long time. But I never used "send to device". I just used the part "save to disk" to save my books on an SD Card. And with this option, the calibre_internal_id is not part of the filename.

This is true. Save to disk doesn't know that it is dealing with a Sony.

The same would be true if you used the folder device

Now, as the Sony reader doesn't care about the folder structure, I've understood I need to use the "send to device" option, so I can organize my books into collection on the sony. Because the "save to disk" option doesn't organize the books into collection on the sony.

Not sure what you mean by "doesn't care about the folder structure". If you are saying that the menus show metadata derived from the books instead of the path name, then I agree with you.

As for collections, if you want calibre to manage collections (create, delete, etc), then you must use send to device (Sony). If you wish to manage them yourself, then you can other save mechanisms (save to disk, send to folder, copy with a file manager). You can manage collections on calibre's device view, as long as calibre's metadata management option is set to Manual (preferences -> send to device -> metadata management). You can also use the Sony SW. I don't know if any of the new readers can manage collections directly on the reader, nor do I know if ADE can do it.

If you decide to use manual management and the Sony device driver, then you might want to empty the 'create collections from' box found in preferences -> plugins -> device plugins -> Sony.
